VeChain Price Surges After Surprise Announcement From Binance
VeChain’s price has spiked in a matter of hours, largely due to a surprise announcement from leading cryptocurrency exchange Binance.
At time of publishing, VeChain is up about 24%, at $2.45 on CoinMarketCap.
The spike happened as Binance revealed an airdrop of 100 million VTHO for customers who hold VeChain.
VTHO is essentially the currency of the new VeChainThor blockchain, similar to NEO’s GAS token.
