MATIC Skyrockets After Coinbase Announce Listing

Ethereum scaling and infrastructure development platform, Matic Network (now Polygon) has rallied by 35%. The surge was fueled by the forthcoming Coinbase pro listing. San Francisco-based cryptocurrency exchange, Coinbase announced yesterday that MATIC would be available for trading on its advanced trading platform, Coinbase Pro, from the 11th of March if liquidity conditions are met. MATIC will be available for trading in four different pairs (BTC, USD, EUR, and GBP).

MATIC token is now priced above $0.31, while its market capitalization subsequently reached $1.575 billion.

Matic Network recently rebranded to Polygon. It stated that its decision to rebrand “will coincide with a strategic shift that will see Polygon focus on creating a multichain system akin to Polkadot on Ethereum.”

Polygon aims to proffer a solution to the rising gas fees, which has recently posed a serious problem to the Ethereum blockchain. It will introduce layer 2 sidechains to enhance speed and reduce the cost of transactions.

Overall Bullish Momentum
