An artificial intelligence (AI)-based altcoin and a decentralized finance (DeFi) token have soared in price after being added to Coinbase’s listing roadmap.
In a post on the social media platform X, Coinbase Assets announces the additions of AI-focused project Aethir (ATH) and DeFi protocol Maple Finance (SYRUP) to its listing roadmap, causing the digital assets to spike in price.
Coinbase’s listing roadmap is typically used for transparency and to prevent the front-running of tokens prior to them being listed. Being added to the roadmap means the crypto exchange may add support for the crypto asset soon.
News of the addition sent both tokens flying, as ATH went from a low of $0.0318 on March 6th to a peak of $0.0435 just a day later, a gain of about 36.79%.
Meanwhile, SYRUP went form a low of $0.137 on March 7th to a peak of $0.193 on March 8th, a rise of 40%.
Both assets have since retraced and are valued at $0.0371 and $0.165, respectively.
Aethir, which launched over Ethereum (ETH) in June 2024, is a decentralized cloud computing protocol that is focused on offering high-performance graphics processing unit (GPU) capabilities to AI as well as blockchain-based video games.
Maple Finance, which launched in 2021, is a borrowing and lending protocol that allows borrowers to access capital by providing under-collateralized loans and enables lenders to earn yields by providing liquidity.
