Two popular altcoins are surging in price after receiving surprise listings from US-based crypto exchange platform Bitstamp.
Crypto exchange platform Bitstamp has officially added support for two new altcoins in the US.
In a new blog post, Bitstamp says that its US branch is now offering well-known Solana (SOL) and Pepe (PEPE) for trading.
The frog-themed meme asset is built on top of altcoin Ethereum (ETH). Both tokens will be available for trading against USD.
The crypto exchange adds that both tokens are now live on its platform and that users can begin depositing, withdrawing and trading SOL and PEPE immediately.
The new listings come a day after crypto exchange Binance announced that it would be delisting several trading pairs that feature the PEPE token. Binance said that the move was being made due to low trading volume.
Solana, on the other hand, is surging in price once again after receiving a surprise listing from Bitstamp. The smart contract platform experienced a massive rally in recent weeks, surging from a low of $215 on November 24th to a peak of $246 on the 29th.
The price of SOL has since retraced and is trading for $240 at the time of writing. The token is up by 3% in the past 24 hours and has soared by over 10% in the past week.
Solana is currently ranked as the seventh-largest crypto by market cap.
