Nubank has expanded its cryptocurrency investment options, adding four new tokens to its digital asset platform. Starting today, users can access Cardano (ADA), NEAR Protocol (NEAR), Cosmos (ATOM), and Algorand (ALGO), bringing the total number of available cryptocurrencies on the platform to 20.

The fintech’s cryptocurrency portfolio already featured established options like Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, USDC, and Ripple before this latest expansion. Thomaz Fortes, executive director of Nubank’s crypto and virtual assets division, emphasized the strategic nature of this expansion.

“The offering of new coins reflects our commitment to providing a diversified crypto asset portfolio aligned with our client’s needs,” explained Fortes. “We will continue to expand our selection of tokens throughout the year, always with a careful analysis of the options.”

This development follows Nubank Crypto’s recent introduction of 11 new cryptocurrency trading pairs that can be exchanged for USDC within the platform. These pairs include Aave (AAVE), Avalanche (AVAX), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Polkadot (DOT), ChainLink (LINK), Litecoin (LTC), Polygon (POL), Stellar (XLM), Ripple (XRP), Arbitrum (ARB), and Optimism (OP).

Each of the newly added tokens brings unique capabilities to Nubank’s cryptocurrency ecosystem:

• Cardano (ADA), often referred to as an “Ethereum killer,” stands out for its speed and low transaction costs, making it one of the market’s largest tokens.

• Near Protocol (NEAR) addresses key blockchain challenges around usability, scalability, and security through innovative features including dynamic sharding and human-readable account names.

• Algorand (ALGO) specializes in asset tokenization with rapid, cost-effective transactions. The platform emphasizes decentralized finance (DeFi) applications and business adoption while offering staking opportunities.

• Cosmos (ATOM), known as the “internet of blockchains,” enables different networks to communicate through its Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) protocol, enhancing security and efficiency for cross-chain asset transfers.

Earlier this year, Nubank enhanced its rewards program for users holding the digital dollar stablecoin USDC. Customers maintaining at least 10 USDC in their wallets receive daily returns at a fixed annual rate of 4%. This stablecoin is backed by the US dollar and supported by highly liquid assets, making it a relatively stable option in the typically volatile cryptocurrency market.

The expansion signifies Nubank’s growing commitment to the cryptocurrency sector while providing its customers with increasingly diversified digital asset investment options.
