The above altcoins are currently not listed. In a blog post published today, Coinbase shared that these 6 altcoins are under evaluation as part of the 2022 roadmap. Since this possibility is high, it may be useful to follow the projects closely.
Let’s take a closer look at altcoin projects
Celer Network (CELR)
Celer Network is developing an off chain scaling solution to scale the various Blockchain networks that will run on its platform. Off-chain (or layer 2) scaling solutions are considered theoretically superior. This is because it allows the network to process smaller transactions than Blockchain. This data is then combined into a single transaction known as on-Chain. Celer Network, a successful example of this system, ranks 157th in terms of market value. It is trading at $0.01872 at the time of writing.
Nest Protocol (NEST)
Nest Protocol is an Ethereum-based price prediction platform that aims to improve the crypto market. The network’s native token, NEST, is the native token used in their DAPP, a decentralized smart contract interaction tool. NEST is used to meet the liquidity needs of the platform. NEST, the 253rd cryptocurrency by market cap, is currently trading at $0.0336.
Stargate Finance (STG)
Stargate is a cross-chain liquidity protocol that enables dApps and DeFi participants to transfer assets across networks. It aims to improve cross-blockchain asset transfers, which is a major shortcoming of most existing bridges. STG is the 352nd largest cryptocurrency by market cap. It is currently trading 90% below the ATH price of $4.28.
SuperRare (RARE)
SuperRare is the NFT platform that allows individuals to collect and sell digital art. The RARE token is used as a native asset on SuperRare’s NFT platform. RARE, the 524th largest cryptocurrency by market cap, is currently trading at $0.2791.
