Coinbase Global Inc.’s (NASDAQ: COIN) trading platform Coinbase just listed Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: SHIB) following the recent integration on its professional trading platform Coinbase Pro.
What Happened: According to a Thursday Coinbase tweet, Shiba Inu is now available “on Coinbase and in the Coinbase iOS and Android apps.” Customers of the U.S.-based crypto exchange can now sell, buy, convert, withdraw and deposit Shiba Inu on the platform.
Many proponents of the coin view the listing on Coinbase as a significant development. The reason is what has become known as the “Coinbase effect.” According to an April study, a token being listed on Coinbase results in an average price gain of 91% in just five days.
