Prime Day Overview: 23,485 Users Snap Up 3 Billion RSR & 188 Bitcoin

SINGAPORE, May 22, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Huobi Global ushered in the ninth anniversary of Bitcoin Pizza Day with a bit of history of its own this year; the Huobi Prime launch of Reserve's RSR token and a special sale of Bitcoin at up to 50% off market value.

Huobi's entire 3 billion supply of RSR and the 188 BTC set aside for the sale completely sold out by the end of trading.

"We knew we wanted to do something big to mark Bitcoin Pizza Day this year. Partnering with Reserve for our third Prime launch plus hosting a special sale on BTC itself struck us as the perfect way to do it," said Livio Weng, CEO of Huobi Global.

RSR is designed to maintain the stability of Reserve's USD-pegged stablecoin Reserve token (RSV).
