Coinbase Boosts Interest in Ethereum Network with New Altcoin Inclusions
Coinbase, a leading US-based cryptocurrency exchange, has recently expanded its Ethereum-based digital offerings by adding two altcoins: Maple Syrup (SYRUP) and Aethir (ATH).
The announcement was made on the social media platform X, causing significant rallies for both tokens.
Maple Syrup, a decentralized finance (DeFi) platform, and Aethir, an AI-focused decentralized cloud computing protocol, saw nearly 40% spikes in their prices upon the news of their upcoming support last week.
Following the formal announcement, SYRUP's price surged from $0.131 to $0.173, and ATH's price increased from $0.034 to $0.040, marking substantial gains within just 24 hours.
Maple Syrup aims to facilitate under-collateralized loans to enhance capital access while also rewarding lenders within its ecosystem.
Aethir, launched last year, aims to boost the availability of high-performance GPU capabilities for AI and blockchain-based video games.
This strategic expansion by Coinbase not only highlights the growing interest and value in specialized blockchain services but also strengthens the Ethereum network's position as a versatile platform for diverse digital asset innovations.
