May 5 (Cointime) - Following Binance's announcement of listing the memecoins Pepe ($PEPE) , several other major cryptocurrency trading platforms including Huobi, Crypto.com, KuCoin have quickly followed suit.

Justin Sun, an advisor at Huobi, expressed his excitement in a celebratory tweet which also highlighted the recent surge in value of other digital assets that were recently added to the exchange.

Crypto.com, another renowned cryptocurrency exchange, has also announced the listing of the meme-inspired cryptocurrency on its platform. The exchange has confirmed that users can purchase the digital asset at "true cost" using over 20 fiat currencies, including USD, EUR, and GBP.

KuCoin has also added to the options available for cryptocurrency enthusiasts by introducing spot trading of PEPE against USDT, as well as launching isolated margin trading for PEPE pairs. This move further expands the opportunities for trading and investing in the memecoin.

PEPE is a popular memecoin that draws inspiration from the infamous meme and cartoon character, Pepe the Frog. Launched on April 17, 2023, concerns were raised about the contract owner's ability to modify transaction taxes and blacklist functions. However, despite these concerns, PEPE has experienced a significant surge in its market value, and has now secured a spot among the top 100 digital assets following multiple listings on centralized exchanges.
