What’s behind the NEIRO Price Surge?
Ethereum-based latest meme coin NEIRO has gained significant attention recently after receiving support from some of the top crypto exchanges like Binance, KuCoin, and others. This has provided a strong liquidity boost to the meme coin.
Earlier this week on Monday, September 16, NEIRO debuted on the Binance’s spot and futures market. This led to an unprecedented 800% surge in its price within just 24 hours. As a result, NEIRO extended its weekly gains to more than 1,200%.
Boosting NEIRO’s visibility, KuCoin also began trading the token under the symbol NEIROCTO for the NEIROCTO/USDT pair on September 17, following a naming conflict. The exchange has enabled deposits via the ETH-ERC20 network, with withdrawals set to be available starting September 18.
Furthermore, crypto exchange Bybit also allowed the deposits and withdrawals of the NEIRO memecoin on the Ethereum blockchain networks.
These listings by the world’s top crypto exchanges have boosted NEIRO’s market presence, triggering a surge in volatility driven by growing investor interest and speculative trading.
