Why is MinePlex price rising?

Before we delve into the reasons behind the price hike, let’s first explain what MinePlex is for the sake of those coming across the term for the first time.

In a nutshell, MinePlex is a mobile crypto bank that enables users to use fiat or cryptocurrencies for transfers, payments, and banking operations. It has two native tokens namely PLEX and MINE.

New digital banking app, MinePlex.Finance, launch

One of the main factors that have resulted in the current price hike is the recent launch of a new digital banking app, MinePlex which set the coin price skyrocketing.

According to a press release, the new app will bridge main fiat currencies with PLEX tokens:

“MinePlex.Finance is independent from the MinePlex platform, although it requires the use of the project’s own PLEX tokens in order to utilize it. It comes as an advanced solution that can be used as a digital account, a payment app, or a mobile wallet for PLEX tokens and the main fiat.”
