Apart from the second-largest meme coin, the New York-headquartered trading platform has also listed a slew of tokens from the decentralized finance ecosystem, including Quant (QNT), Fetch AI (FET) and Radicle (RAD).

The Winklevii-owned exchange, which is known for its emphasis on regulatory compliance, embraced Dogecoin in May, becoming one of the latest major exchanges to jump into the canine mania. 

Coinbase and Binance.US listed Shiba Inu in October.

Kraken and Robinhood remain on the sidelines

Robinhood also keeps dragging its feet about adding the canine cryptocurrency despite the petition to list the token reaching an eye-watering 531,000 signatures.
