Coinbase, a leading US-based cryptocurrency exchange, has officially extended trading support for two new altcoins: aPriori (APR) and Meteora (MET). Trading for both tokens began on October 23, 2025, and they are now available on Coinbase.com, the Coinbase mobile app, Coinbase Advanced, and institutional investors can access them via Coinbase Exchange. Region-based trading restrictions remain in effect, and the exchange noted that limit orders can be placed and canceled, but market orders cannot be submitted.
The exchange provided official contract addresses for users: aPriori (APR) operates on the Ethereum network (ERC-20) with the address 0x5a9610919f5e81183823a2be4bd1beb2b4da2a20, while Meteora (MET) runs on the Solana network (SPL) under the address METvsvVRapdj9cFLzq4Tr43xK4tAjQfwX76z3n6mWQL. Both tokens debuted just yesterday, making them recent additions to the crypto market.
aPriori (APR) powers a liquid staking platform on Monad that utilizes MEV strategies to boost user rewards. It was featured on Binance Alpha and is tradable on several decentralized exchanges. Since its launch, APR's value has surged 92.8%, reaching approximately $0.61 at the time of reporting, indicating strong initial performance.
In contrast, Meteora (MET), the native token of a decentralized liquidity protocol on Solana, has faced volatility and scrutiny. Its price fell 15% since entering the market, trading around $0.58. Beyond price swings, MET has attracted criticism for its airdrop allocation, where wallets linked to TRUMP meme-coin insiders received about $4.2 million in tokens, later transferred to OKX. Additionally, Meteora founder Benjamin Chow is involved in a class-action lawsuit over alleged misconduct tied to earlier meme-coin projects like LIBRA and MELANIA.
