Coinbase has announced a new procedure for listing assets with the sole purpose of speeding up the process of listing digital assets that meet the exchange’s stringent requirements. This exciting development aims to improve efficiency while maintaining the integrity and security Coinbase users expect.

Transparency and Clarity in Coinbase's Asset Listing Process

Coinbase has officially confirmed the addition of Reserve Rights on its listing path. This update brings transparency to Coinbase’s asset listing process and provides clarity on how new assets are evaluated. The roadmap outlines the steps Coinbase takes to evaluate and review new coins before they are listed on the platform. This includes a technical analysis of the coin’s underlying technology and security.

Coinbase Exchange's Rigorous Listing Standards

Coinbase Exchange adheres to thorough processes and standards for all asset listings. Our Digital Asset Support Group (DASG) votes on which assets can be listed on our exchange, ensuring only the highest-quality and most promising digital assets are considered. Coinbase’s standard listing evaluation framework uses the data that is submitted via Asset Hub to ensure that every asset Coinbase supports meets our eligibility criteria.
