Coinbase Pro will integrate Paradex support over the next few weeks, which will enable users to "trade hundreds of tokens directly from their wallets," according to the release. The goal is to "make the trading experience easier and more intuitive." Other features include a new chart system which provides streamlined access to historical data and a consolidated portfolio view. The new system will not be available to U.S. citizens initially.
