MEXC Announces Listing of Shardeum (SHM) with 72,000 SHM and 150,000 USDT in Bonuses

A leading global cryptocurrency exchange, MEXC, will list Shardeum (SHM) in the Innovation Zone on May 8, 2025, at 09:00 UTC. To celebrate this significant addition to the exchange, MEXC is hosting three events with a combined prize pool of 72,000 SHM and 150,000 USDT.

What is Shardeum?

Shardeum is an EVM-compatible, autoscaling blockchain designed with dynamic state sharding to ensure permanently low gas fees while maintaining full decentralization and robust security.

This allows Shardeum to scale to handle the same throughput as centralized chains but with the open and decentralized nature of a blockchain.

Shardeum is on a mission to create an affordable blockchain ecosystem with sustainably low gas fees that are economically viable for users and developers alike. The project has secured over $31 million in funding from leading investors, including Struck Crypto, Arrington Capital, Big Brain Holdings, Spartan Group, Amber Group, Foresight Ventures, Jane Street, and more.

The project's token, $SHM, is used for both utility and governance functions, such as fee payments, validator staking, and on-chain governance proposals. It plays a crucial role in the platform's consensus mechanism, aligning incentives and securing the network to support sustainable Web3 innovation.
