After cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase listed two tokens of the Solana ecosystem, the Ethereum-killer Solana (SOL) itself managed to surge 18% in the last 24 hours and is currently comfortably valued at $107.14 according to CoinMarketCap data.
On Monday, Coinbase had announced the listing of ORCA and FIDA, tokens of Solana-based decentralized exchanges Orca and Bonfida respectively. This was the first time for non-Ethereum assets to be listed on Coinbase.
Inbound transfers for Bonfida (FIDA) and Orca (ORCA) are now available on @Coinbase and @CoinbaseExch in the regions where trading is supported. Trading is not enabled at this time. Trading will begin on or after 9AM PT on Tuesday, February 1, if liquidity conditions are met. pic.twitter.com/0dtwx0CcgD
