Coinbase Announces Support For Neon EVM
Coinbase, a leading cryptocurrency exchange, has announced plans to support Neon EVM (NEON) on its platform, marking a significant development for the Solana ecosystem. The announcement was made via a tweet by Coinbase Assets, and the trading will begin in phases to ensure sufficient liquidity on the platform.
NEON is known for its ability to bridge the gap between Ethereum and Solana, allowing developers to deploy their existing decentralized applications without modifying their codebase. It is compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and the underlying technology that powers Ethereum dApps.
NEON serves a dual purpose: it functions as the utility token for gas fees on the Neon EVM platform and allows holders to participate in decentralized governance, allowing them to influence the future development of the Neon EVM project.
Users will likely be able to trade NEON with major fiat currencies and stablecoins, providing greater flexibility in buying and selling NEON.
