Bitstamp Acquires and Lists Bonk Cryptocurrency
Bitstamp, a leading European cryptocurrency exchange recently acquired by US-based trading firm Robinhood, has introduced the trading of Bonk (BONK). Customers of the crypto exchange can now engage in BONK trading on Bitstamp’s platform, including through iOS and Android mobile apps available on the App Store and Google Play.
Bitstamp Teases Potential Listing of WIF Meme Coin
Following the listing of Bonk, Bitstamp has hinted at potentially listing Dogwifhat (WIF), another popular Solana meme coin. If this listing occurs, it will add to Bitstamp’s offerings alongside other top crypto exchanges such as Binance, OKX, Bybit, and Kraken. Speculation around WIF includes a possible listing on Coinbase, a prominent US-based crypto exchange that has yet to support trading for the meme coin.
Robinhood’s Acquisition of Bitstamp
Bitstamp’s recent acquisition by Robinhood and its strategic positioning as a regulated crypto platform in the European Union are significant for the projects listed on the exchange. With Robinhood’s bid to acquire Bitstamp and the impending implementation of the EU’s MiCA rules in 2024, Bitstamp is anticipated to receive increased traction in the cryptocurrency market.
