- The listing of SNEK on Kraken is a massive gain for the wider Cardano ecosystem.
- With geographical restrictions in place, Kraken announced deposits and withdrawals of Snek are already enabled.
- SNEK price has consistently closed above a falling daily wedge pattern, signaling further bullish momentum.
Kraken Exchange, a veteran U.S.-based cryptocurrency exchange with over 10 million global users, announced on Friday, April 25 that it will list Cardano (ADA)-based memecoin Snek (SNEK) next week. According to the announcement, deposits and withdrawals for SNEK on Kraken Exchange have been enabled ahead of the April 28 official listing.
Kraken announced that geographical restrictions will apply accordingly to SNEK trading. The listing of SNEK on Kraken is a huge milestone victory for the Cardano ecosystem, which has faced harsh criticism for low on-chain activity.
“Getting listed on Kraken is a huge achievement in itself but opening the door for tier 1 CEX listings for Cardano native tokens is incredible, this is not only a huge Win for Snek but a massive win for everyone building on $ADA,” X platform user EL noted.
Impact on SNEK Price
Following the announcement, SNEK price rallied over 17 percent to trade at about $0.00357 at the time of this writing. As a result, the small-cap memecoin, with a fully diluted valuation of about $273 million and a 24-hour average trading volume of around $4.3 million, had gained more than 42 percent in the past seven days.
The resurgence of SNEK FOMO amid improving fundamentals will play a crucial role in its bullish outlook ahead. In the daily timeframe, SNEK price had already broken out of a falling wedge pattern and signaled bullish sentiment at the time of this writing.
Moreover, the daily MACD line had already crossed the zero line, amid the notable rally of the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
