Cryptocurrency exchange, Huobi Global has announced the rebranding of its Prime Lite to FastTrack, three weeks after the product offering service was launched. The Singaporean-based trading platform also had massive success with its Bitcoin Pizza Day promo which took place two days ago.
Prime Lite Becomes FastTrack
Huobi Global announced yesterday that it has officially rebranded its Prime Lite product offering and is now calling it FastTrack. Prime Lite was launched on May 9, 2019, and it is a niche brand of Huobi Prime which offers listing opportunities for blockchain projects.
According to the official announcement, Huobi FastTrack is designed to attract quality blockchain projects that are listed on other cryptocurrency exchanges. FastTrack will target popular projects that have active community support all over the world.
Big changes – and a new name – coming to Prime Lite! World, meet #Huobi FastTrack.

Huobi listed some criteria for projects to fulfill before they can be a part of FastTrack. Some of the conditions include; having a good trading volume and strong community support, willingness to distribute roughly 500,000 USDT equivalent of its digital currency at a 50 percent discount, and the willingness to work jointly with the Huobi.
The Singaporean-based exchange is aiming to announce five FastTrack project candidates per month, with Huobi users allowed to vote on the projects weekly to determine those that would be listed. Only one project will emerge as the winner per week, and Huobi will list it the same day.
In a blog post, Huobi provided more details regarding voter eligibility, the voting process, FastTrack listing, Huobi Token burn, and the voting reward. Huobi revealed that users that participate in the voting process would be eligible to purchase the Huobi Tokens (HT) at a discounted price.
Huobi Token’s Impressive Price Rally
Huobi’s achievements over the past few months seemed have rubbed off on its native token, HT which has been performing excellently recently. A look at HT’s price chart shows that it is up by 30 percent against USDT over the past week. It was trading at $2.51 a week ago but has risen in a strong uptrend to trade at $3.2 currently.
