Speculation grows in the Cardano community about Gemini possibly listing ADA, the 10th-largest cryptocurrency. Rumors started after Gemini described Cardano as an “open-source protocol” focused on consensus and governance democratization.
Fueling these speculations, Gemini published an article about Cardano authored by Frederik Gregaard, the CEO of the Cardano Foundation. Gemini featured this article on its education platform, Cryptopedia. In a video shared by Cardano staking pool operator St₳kΣ with Pride, Gregaard mentioned his ongoing efforts with top crypto exchanges to potentially list ADA.
Community Anticipates ADA Listing
Following Gregaard’s comments, the publication of the article by Gemini stirred further speculation about the exchange’s plans to list ADA. Prominent Cardano community members, including St₳kΣ with Pride, have been particularly vocal.
In a recent X post, St₳kΣ with Pride confidently asserted that Gemini would list ADA and possibly support other digital assets on the Cardano blockchain, known as Cardano Native Tokens (CNTs). Despite these developments, Gemini has not provided any updates on its plans to list ADA.

Gemini, established in 2014, is one of the top centralized crypto exchanges globally, currently ranking 16th. According to CoinMarketCap, its 24-hour trading volume is $54.41 million. The exchange offers various cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC), Shiba Inu (SHIB), Ether (ETH), Dogecoin (DOGE), Filecoin (FIL), and Bitcoin Cash (BCH).
Renewed Optimism
However, Gemini’s delay in listing ADA has left many Cardano community members frustrated. Although ADA is the 10th-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, Gemini has consistently ignored calls to list it without providing any explanations.
