Popular American crypto exchange firm Coinbase confirmed the listing of Algorand crypto on Thursday, July 16. After its listing on Coinbase spurred by popular customers’ demand, the crypto price surged over 30 percent under 24 hours.

With Coinbase listing of Algorand, users of the platform in the US would now be able to use trade, buy, and sell ALGO on the web version and Coinbase app.
Reportedly, Algorand and Coinbase connection began last year when ALGO gained listing on Coinbase Pro, the institutional-grade arm of the exchange. Coinbase would begin offering EUR and GBP trading on the ALGO pair starting July 21.

The crypto price currently trades at over $0.35, which is the second time it would trade so high ever in its history. The crypto price has surged three times over its all-time low it plunged into after the ‘Black Thursday’ crypto market crash in March.
Reportedly, the cryptos Coinbase listing has come as a shock as Algorand is not part of 18 cryptos the American exchange firm said they were considering listing in June. However, it could be because Algorand crypto is listed on the Coinbase Pro platform last August.
