What Could Be the Reason For The Inclusion, Could It Be an Increase in Demand for ADA?
Anytime a coin is added by crypto-related firms such as exchanges, they always cite an increase in the demand as one of their reasons. This could also be the case for this local food stall that has been accepting Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) for quite a long time before considering the inclusion of Cardano (ADA).
The same increase in demand for ADA was one of the factors that made Coinbase, the largest US-based crypto exchange, fulfill the top wish of Cardano traders and investors.
Before the exchange officially added Cardano (ADA) to coinbase.com, it was first added to Conbase Pro as a trial for about two days, followed by the major announcement on 19th March 2021 after meeting the exchange’s liquidity conditions
