A new decentralized finance (DeFi) trading altcoin is surging after gaining support from the top US-based crypto exchange platform by volume.
In a new thread on the social media platform X, Coinbase says it’s adding the DeFi token Definitive Finance (EDGE) to its suite of digital asset products with an experimental label, causing the altcoin to skyrocket.
Coinbase’s experimental label designates assets as having higher volatility and lower trading volume compared to other products offered by the firm.
News of the addition sent EDGE flying, as the token went from an April 2nd low of $0.0274 to a peak of $0.1157 just a few hours later. The digital asset has since retraced and is trading for $0.086 at time of writing, a staggering gain of nearly 180% during the last 24 hours.
According to its official website, Definitive aims to mimic the experience offered by centralized exchange platforms, such as Coinbase and Binance, despite being decentralized.
“Definitive is the future of onchain trade execution. We deliver a CeFi-like experience on DeFi rails via a fully non-custodial platform and API (application program interface) that is live across Solana, Base and other major EVM (Ethereum virtual machine) chains.
With Definitive, anyone – from a retail user, to a whale, to a liquid fund, or even an AI agent – can trade any asset on any chain with the same institutional-grade execution found in CeFi.”
