“We feel very very good about the coins that we’re currently listing on our platform and any new coins that we add we want to feel equal, if not better”.
Furthermore, traditional brokerage and apps, which includes Robinhood, have been seriously considering adding the crypto trading facility to their platform as it becomes critical to their growth.
