Coinbase has unveiled its roadmap for future asset listings, adding three new tokens to its potential listing lineup: Morpho (MORPHO), Pudgy Penguins (PENGU), and Popcat (POPCAT). This move is part of Coinbase’s efforts to offer greater transparency and provide traders with early insights into upcoming token additions.
Meme Coin Popcat and NFT Token Pudgy Penguins
Popcat (POPCAT), a meme coin built on the Solana blockchain, draws inspiration from the viral “Popcat” meme featuring the cat Oatmeal. The token’s popularity has surged due to the growing trend of meme-driven cryptocurrencies.
Similarly, Pudgy Penguins (PENGU) is another Solana-based token, linked to the Pudgy Penguins NFT collection. The collection has expanded beyond digital art into physical products such as Pudgy Toys, further elevating its market presence.
DeFi Lending Protocol Morpho
Morpho (MORPHO), a decentralized finance (DeFi) lending protocol on the Base network, optimizes lending and borrowing activities on major platforms like Aave and Compound. This protocol aims to enhance the DeFi ecosystem by streamlining transactions and improving efficiency for users.
Market Impact and Price Movements
Following Coinbase’s announcement, the three tokens have seen notable price increases. Popcat (POPCAT) surged by approximately 25%, reaching $0.2303. Meanwhile, Morpho (MORPHO) and Pudgy Penguins (PENGU) both experienced price gains of around 8%. However, PENGU has since started to show signs of decline, now sitting at $0.01053, while MORPHO remains up by 5%.
Despite these individual price movements, the broader market sentiment remains cautious. Bitcoin continues to approach the $100,000 mark, currently trading at $99,650, while Solana has regained momentum, recently surpassing $200.
