This initiative aligns with KuCoin’s commitment to driving user-centric campaigns that enhance utility and adoption for new digital assets on the platform. Understanding Shardeum’s Technology For those unaware, Shardeum is an autoscaling Layer-1 blockchain that supports Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatibility. It utilizes dynamic state sharding technology, which helps the network scale linearly and increase throughput (TPS) as more nodes join the network. This approach keeps gas fees as low as $0.01 while maintaining high transaction throughput even during network congestion. Unlike many traditional blockchains that require significant computing resources, Shardeum executes consensus at the transaction level. This design reduces hardware requirements for validator nodes, enabling broader participation and helping the network remain decentralized. KuCoin Expands Listings with Scalable Layer-1 Networks By adding Shardeum (SHM) to its platform, KuCoin reinforces its commitment to spotlighting scalable, high-impact blockchain projects for its global audience. The exchange has recently welcomed other pioneering tokens like Hyper, Domin, Zora, and Initia, cementing its reputation as a launchpad for cutting-edge crypto solutions. A 2024 Klein Labs study lauded KuCoin’s meticulous listing process, noting a steady 6.82% average price uptick for new tokens with minimal volatility risks.
