Seychelles-based crypto exchange OKX has unveiled its support for three new memecoins, including a recent addition related to Dogecoin (DOGE).
The exchange will now offer perpetual futures trading for BasedBrett (BRETT), Simon’s Cat (CAT), and Neiro on ETH (NEIROETH).
BRETT, a leading memecoin on Base—the blockchain developed by Coinbase—boasts a market cap of $683 million but has seen a 40% decline since August. Simon’s Cat, initially launched on the BNB Smart Chain (BSC) and airdropped to Floki (FLOKI) holders, has a market cap of $187 million and has surged 152% from its all-time low shortly after launch.
The Neiro project, positioning itself as “the official sister of DOGE,” is now on Ethereum (ETH) with a market cap of $128 million and has risen over 449% from its all-time low on September 3rd.
All three memecoins will be available for trading on USDT margin perpetual futures.
