CoinW Debuts Shardeum Token (SHM) Globally, Backing the Next Wave of Layer-1 Innovation
CoinW officially listed Shardeum’s native token, SHM, on May 8, 2025, introducing a next-generation Layer-1 blockchain built to scale dynamically with demand. Shardeum’s dynamic state sharding and autoscaling architecture provides an economical, secure, and decentralized platform for Web3 applications. CoinW’s extensive global coverage and liquidity are directed towards growing the exposure and usage of SHM in the major international markets.
Strategic Advancement in Blockchain Support
CoinW, a global cryptocurrency exchange, announced the listing of SHM—Shardeum’s native coin—on May 8, 2025. This feat reflects a valuable advancement in CoinW’s determination to expand its support for evolving blockchain frameworks and open access for international users of state-of-the-art Web3 innovation.
Solving the Trilemma: Shardeum’s Unique Architecture
While most Layer-1 networks sacrifice one side of the trilemma for the other, Shardeum’s protocol allows all aspects to run at full capacity. By utilizing dynamic state sharding and a new Proof-of-Quorum Optimistic (PoQo) consensus algorithm, the blockchain enjoys sub-cent transaction fees and high performance, even under full load, while maintaining decentralization.
Validator-Friendly Infrastructure Supports Global Access
The mainnet, with 256 validators in two shards going live, is built on top of a testnet that garnered over 171,000 validator nodes, proof of the network’s ease of access. Shardeum validator onboarding requires minimal technical effort—a basic command and straightforward input, making it especially practical for users in emerging markets. This ease of participation reinforces the protocol’s decentralized ideology and encourages global participation.
Developer-Centric, Open-Source Ecosystem
From a developer’s perspective, Shardeum provides an open and transparent infrastructure. With over 60 open-source repositories and over 32,000 GitHub stars, the project is centered around collaboration and ease of access. It supports popular EVM-based wallets and utilities to improve the developer experience and speed up decentralized application integration.
CoinW’s Global Infrastructure Fuels SHM Launch
CoinW’s participation in SHM’s listing reaches beyond basic exchange functionality. Being the pioneering platform to list the token worldwide, CoinW presented extensive support from technical launch and liquidity supply to promotion and ecosystem activation. CoinW established a deep liquidity pool to ensure smooth trading. Leveraging its broad global network—spanning social platforms, regional partners, and KOL communities—the exchange amplified SHM’s market entry across Asia, Europe, and the Middle East.
A Strategic Milestone for CoinW and Shardeum
The SHM listing on CoinW is a strategic milestone for the two companies. For Shardeum, it brings the loop from protocol development to users worldwide. For CoinW, it is yet another milestone in its quest to discover and support rising technologies with strong growth potential.
CoinW’s Vision: Scaling Innovation Globally
