Web3 data access layer Subsquid has confirmed that its SQD token is to list on several tier-one crypto exchanges. The native Subsquid token will be simultaneously listed on Gate.io, Bybit, KuCoin, CoinList and MEXC Global on May 17th, 2024.
Markets for trading SQD will open at 8:00 UTC, with an initial launch price of $0.094. The multiple exchange listing follows an oversubscribed token sale on Coinlist that raised $6.3M. The addition of SQD to tier-one exchanges will increase liquidity and access to the native Subsquid token.
SQD plays a critical role in the Subsquid ecosystem. In addition to aligning incentives between infrastructure providers, the token is used to reward node operators that provide computation and storage resources. Other use cases include node curation and facilitating protocol governance.
Marcel Fohrmann, Co-Founder of Subsquid said: “We’re excited to see our token go live on various trading venues. We’ve been working on getting Subsquid to market and onboard hundreds of worker nodes. With Subsquid Network even petabytes of on-chain data can be accessed and queried in a trustless and permissionless way, gradually replacing RPC nodes for data reads. We believe that this is another step towards powerful, fully decentralized web3 dapps and analytics.”
The listing of SQD on global exchanges will support Subsquid’s goal of decentralizing its network and opening it up to as many web3 users as possible. This will empower SQD holders to utilize Subsquid’s protocol and participate in its permissionless data economy.
