Highlights
- Coinbase announced the listing of two SLP tokens.
- The Solana ecosystem tokens in question are Shadow Token and Neon EVM.
- The SHDW and NEON prices rallied unprecedentedly following the announcement.
Coinbase, the leading cryptocurrency exchange, has added two new assets to its roadmap today. The newly listed assets are Solana ecosystem’s Shadow Token (SHDW) and Neon EVM (NEON), both of which are SLP tokens. Moreover, the SHDW and NEON prices skyrocketed after the latest announcement.
Coinbase Lists Shadow & Neon
Shadow Token is described as the utility token powering the Shadow dePIN ecosystem. Furthermore, it aims to revolutionize the way transactions are conducted within its ecosystem. On the other hand, Neon EVM is a smart contract operating on the Solana blockchain, offering innovative solutions within the decentralized finance (DeFi) space.
Following the announcement of their addition to Coinbase’s roadmap, both SHDW and NEON experienced a remarkable surge in their prices. This reflects the market’s enthusiasm for these new listings, especially amid the Solana community.
In a recent blog post, Coinbase reaffirmed its commitment to expanding its asset offerings while maintaining rigorous standards for legal, compliance, and technical security. The exchange emphasized that its evaluation criteria do not consider factors such as market capitalization or project popularity. Instead, Coinbase focuses on ensuring that listed assets meet stringent requirements to safeguard users’ funds and uphold the integrity of its platform.
However, Coinbase also noted that not all projects meet its standards. This indicates that there are assets that have been excluded from listing at this time due to regulatory concerns or other reasons. Hence, the addition of SHDW and NEON to Coinbase’s roadmap represents a significant milestone for both projects, providing them with increased exposure and credibility within the cryptocurrency ecosystem.
