How to Trade XRP for PRX on Gatehub and Rippex

Trading XRP for PRX (Presto) on decentralized exchanges like Gatehub and Rippex offers users a seamless way to engage with the Ripple (XRP) Ledger ecosystem. This guide walks you through setting up your wallet, establishing trustlines, and placing limit or market orders—step by step. Whether you're new to decentralized trading or looking to refine your skills, this comprehensive walkthrough ensures clarity, security, and efficiency.

Understanding PRX and Trustlines on the XRP Ledger

Before diving into trading, it's essential to understand how assets work on the XRP Ledger. Unlike native tokens on other blockchains, PRX is not automatically supported in every wallet. To receive or trade PRX, you must extend a trustline to the issuing address.

The issuer for PRX is:
rPRXcb4T8r7VezKkgRbQBuzGrftsjgJcUu

Without setting this trustline, your wallet cannot hold or exchange PRX tokens. Think of a trustline as granting permission to your wallet to recognize and manage a specific token—similar to enabling a currency pair in a forex account.

A: No. The trust limit is just the maximum amount you’re willing to accept—you won’t lose funds unless you actually send them.

A: No. PRX is issued independently on the XRP Ledger by a third party and is not affiliated with Ripple Labs.
