Coinbase Pro, Coinbase's trading platform for professional investors, has just added support for Dash.
Users can already make deposits, while trading will become available from today at 16:00 UTC.
Earlier this month the US-based crypto exchange announced it was considering 8 new assets for listing. Dash is the first of those 8 coins to be included in the platform.
The cryptocurrency, which ranks 16th in CoinMarketCap's ranking, is based on the proof-of-work consensus algorithm and is focused on payments and privacy.
Dash deposits are significantly faster than bitcoin's, as Coinbase Pro credits them on the users' accounts after just 2 confirmations, that is to say, 12 times faster than bitcoin deposits.
Last week Ihodl reported that Coinbase had just revealed a new fund to support DeFi developments and that it planned to launch its own token and IEO.
