One month ago, during our inaugural X Day conference in Paris, we unveiled some of our boldest milestones and products yet including xPortal, xWorlds and xFabric, expanding the scope and scale of the ecosystem and opening up new growth avenues.
Today, we are thrilled to announce the listing of EGLD, the native token underlying the MultiversX blockchain, on Coinbase, the largest US crypto exchange by trading volume.
Launched in 2012, Coinbase is one of the most prominent gateways into the new digital economy and the first crypto exchange to become a public company. Therefore they are required to meet stricter compliance standards and financial audits, as well as to publicly report their financial information and business operations.
