HackerNoon Publishes: SwapSpace Turns 6: On the Road from Aggregator to Exchange Hub
Where 600,000+ Trading Pairs Meet Zero Fees and Zero Friction. Edwards, Colorado, United States, August 7, 2025 -- HackerNoon, the independent tech publishing platform, published the following release today. Text below: SwapSpace, a leading crypto exchange aggregator, is celebrating its 6th anniversary — a significant milestone in an industry where six years often feels like sixty. Since its launch in 2019, SwapSpace has weathered market cycles, grown through bear markets, and helped hundreds of thousands of users swap smarter. Now, the team is reflecting on how far the platform has come — and where it's going next. Here's What They Built While Everyone Was Waiting for the Bull Run 'Happy 6th Anniversary, SwapSpace! It's been remarkable to see your journey and watch you grow into a trusted, user-first exchange hub. We're proud to collaborate with such a dynamic, professional team that consistently raises the bar in the crypto space.' Over the past year, SwapSpace launched a mobile app, expanded into 15 languages, and strengthened its partnerships with 42 trusted providers. Today, the platform enables over 600,000 trading pairs across nearly 4000 coins — all at the best available rates and with zero extra fees. It also introduced its own podcast, SwapSpace Huddle, featuring voices such as Scott Melker and the directors of the Vitalik Buterin documentary. Throughout 2024, SwapSpace maintained a strong presence at global crypto events including EthCC[7], ETH Belgrade, Token2049 Dubai and Singapore, Consensus Hong Kong, and Korean Blockchain Week. The team plans to return to KBW and Token2049 Singapore later this year.. Always On. Always Here User experience has become a top priority for SwapSpace. Over the past year, the platform has redesigned its interface, simplified the stepper flow, added smart tooltips, and optimized fiat integration — making swaps intuitive even for first-time users.

Requested coins are regularly added, bugs are addressed quickly, and feedback loops are tightly maintained — allowing the platform to grow without sacrificing speed or quality. And This Is Just the Warm-Up Six years in, SwapSpace shows no signs of slowing down. The roadmap ahead includes major updates to product flow, expanded B2B integrations, and development of a native exchange product. As aggregation becomes more complex and more powerful, SwapSpace is positioning itself at the center of that evolution — not just adapting to industry changes, but actively shaping them.

Galaxy Digital Slips 8% Post-Earnings as Investors Take Profits Following Big Run Higher
A modestly hot name since obtaining a U.S. listing on the Nasdaq a few months back, Galaxy Digital (GLXY) is seeing some selling after posting second quarter earnings on Tuesday morning. Global Markets revenue rose 28% quarter-over-quarter to $55.4 million despite a 22% decline in trading volumes, as Galaxy outperformed broader market trends, said brokerage KBW. The firm's average loan book grew to $1.1 billion versus peer Coinbase's (COIN) hitting $879 million. Assets on Galaxy's platform rose 27% to $8.9 billion, though adjusted gross profit in asset management fell 26% due to lower on-chain activity. As expected, CoreWeave also exercised its final option to access an additional 133MW of compute at Helios, bringing the site's total committed capacity to 800MW, the report said. Galaxy separately agreed to acquire 160 acres of adjacent land, including a 1GW interconnection request, potentially expanding Helios' capacity to 3.5GW. The firm ended the quarter with $2.5 billion in total liquidity, including $1.1 billion in cash and stablecoins, and $1.3 billion in net digital assets. Corporate debt stood at $1.1 billion. The company's digital asset holdings as of June 30 include 17,102 bitcoin valued at $1.8 billion versus 13,704 bitcoin valued at $1.3 billion six months earlier. The third quarter is off to a strong start, said KBW, with record activity in July as Galaxy helped facilitate the sale of over 80,000 bitcoin and secured the final tranche of AI/HPC compute capacity at its Helios data center through a deal with CoreWeave (CRWV). Shares are lower by 8% Tuesday alongside a selloff in crypto prices, with bitcoin shedding more than 1% to $113,000. The stock remains higher by 13% since listing on Nasdaq in May.
