On Wednesday, Aug. 30, the company announced the expansion of its wallet product, incorporating “custodial, sending, and receiving capabilities for Bitcoin and Dogecoin” alongside the existing feature of facilitating Ethereum swaps. This enhancement is a direct response to user demands for broader support, as stated by the company.
