ShapeShift is back! Adds support for Litecoin, bringing the number of supported cryptocurrencies back to 3

Shapeshif.io exchange, which was shut down due to a hacker attack, has now returned. The company also immediately announced the addition of a new coin to the platform - Litecoin. The platform now officially supports Litecoin, bringing the number of cryptocurrencies supported by the platform back to 3.

New and Improved ShapeShif

Not long ago, Shapeshift was forced to shut down its services due to an attack. At that time, the official did not make it clear when the trading platform would resume operations.

Judging from the trend, the platform's return is much faster than expected. However, it is said that the new ShapeShift looks largely the same as the previous ShapeShift, but there is one obvious difference. The platform currently only supports three cryptocurrencies, but more cryptocurrencies will be added over time.

It’s good to see ShapeShift back on its feet, as cryptocurrency enthusiasts are looking around for alternatives, and it’s not easy to find an instant exchange that doesn’t require registration or account verification.

Currently, the cryptocurrencies supported by the ShapeShift platform include Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin. It is really good to see the return of a platform with three strong cryptocurrencies. The platform can now slowly rebuild the previously supported cryptocurrencies. All other ShapeShift features, such as API, Lens, and Shifty, are also back in working order.

I’m sure many cryptocurrency enthusiasts will be happy to hear that ShapeShift is back and providing services again. Although what happened to ShapeShift is shameful - especially the reasons why it happened, it’s time to move on and hope that ShapeShift can provide satisfactory and high-quality services again.
