Leading US Crypto Exchange Expands Support for XRP, BAT, XLM, ZRX and REP

November 15, 2019

Coinbase, the leading cryptocurrency exchange in the US, has extended its Visa debit card services. The card allows shoppers to spend crypto like cash at the check-out and online wherever Visa is accepted. The Coinbase Card now supports five new cryptocurrencies: XRP, Basic Attention Token (BAT), Stellar Lumens (XLM), 0x (ZRX) and Augur (REP).

Card users were previously limited to transacting with Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash.
