Velodrome Finance (VELO), the decentralized exchange (DEX) token, has seen a massive 113% surge in its value after recently listing on Binance. This means that the token is now available for trading against Tether (USDT).
The listing represents a major achievement for the DEX, which has been designated as the liquidity hub for the Superchain. Other than the massive exposure and visibility that this brings, listing on Binance also does a lot for Velodrome’s growing ecosystem and the interest that investors will now have in its VELO token.
On December 13, Binance officially announced its decision to list Velodrome Finance. Seizing the opportunity, the exchange also introduced the new VELODROME/USDT trading pair, opening deposits for the pair ahead. Trading, however, will only begin at 14:00 (UTC), with withdrawals set to start on Saturday, December 14, at the exact same time.
Meanwhile, acknowledging the risks and volatility that are more than likely to come with the token, despite its huge potential, Binance has applied a “Seed Tag” to it. So, to ensure that traders are safe, users dealing with VELO must complete a risk-awareness quiz every 90 days.
Binance added that it will also enable advanced trading features, including trading bots and spot copy trading. That is, within the first 24 hours of listing.
All these efforts are, without a doubt, geared towards ensuring that users are able to enjoy top-notch trading experiences.
Velodrome Finance’s inclusion in Binance is a major boost to its accessibility and liquidity. These both are key factors in establishing its presence and preserving its continued growth within the decentralized finance (DeFi) space.
As expected, the recent announcement by Binance has had an immediate impact on VELO. The token saw a whopping 113% price jump in the past 24 hours to be trading at $0.3243. It has also seen a 273% increase in just one month and a 527% rise since the beginning of the year.
With a growth so obvious, it might be fair to say that investors are getting increasingly confident in not just Velodrome’s utility but also its potential within the DeFi sector.
VELO currently has a market capitalization of $285 million and a 24-hour trading volume, which has surged nearly 3,500% in 24 hours to $227 million.
Interstingly, VELO’s performance is similar to that of KOMA. Another token that soared 170% after affiliating with Binance.
If nothing else, these trends show that Binance wields such a great influence in the market. This influence becomes immediately noticeable through a token’s visibility and trading activity.
