New York, NY, Sept. 01, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fantom Foundation today announced the support for the Fantom network on Coinbase Wallet. Fantom is a high-performance, EVM-compatible blockchain platform with an increasingly prominent presence in the world of decentralized finance. Network fees of less than a cent and one-second transaction finality have drawn the support of projects like Curve, C.R.E.A.M, and SushiSwap, as well as a rapidly growing community. The broader Fantom ecosystem is also thriving, and Total Value Locked (TVL) on Fantom DeFi protocols has soared to $850M, representing 2600% growth since the beginning of May.

Coinbase confirmed the integration of FTM today and now the wallet enables users to carry out transactions in one second with near-zero fees. Over a million users have installed the wallet app and this integration will give them access to Fantom’s secure and fast DeFi ecosystem.

Fantom has extended Coinbase Wallet support within the Fantom fWallet. Users can sync their Coinbase Wallet account to their Fantom fWallet and conduct a number of activities such as stake FTM and earn rewards.

Coinbase Wallet users can easily access and use the Fantom network, and engage with a number of Fantom dapps. Coupled with the streamlined interface of the Coinbase Wallet, fast transaction speeds and low fees on the Fantom network ensure an excellent user experience.
