  • The exchange typically adds cryptocurrencies to its retail platform a few weeks after first listing them on the professional version, although that turned out not to be the case when it added dogecoin. Coinbase Pro currently supports 50 cryptocurrencies.

    Trading pairs to be supported include DOT-USD, DOT-BTC, DOT-EUR, DOT-GBP and DOT-USDT.

    DOT's price has risen 19% over the last 24 hours, according to CoinDesk 20 data. DOT recently traded at $25.12. Polkadot is a project associated with the Web3 Foundation
