Coinbase, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in the United states is considering adding 18 new assets on its platform.
According to their official announcement released on the blog on Wednesday, they are looking at adding such digital assets like Aave, Aragon, Arweave, Bancor, COMP, Digibyte, Horizon, Liverpeer, NuCypher, numeraire, KEEP Network, Origins Protocol, Ren, Render Network, Siacoin, SKALE Network, Synthetix, and Vechain.
“Today we’re announcing that we are exploring the addition of a range of new assets. As part of the exploratory process customers may see public-facing APIs and other signs that we are conducting engineering work to potentially support these assets.
Coinbase is always continuing to explore the addition of new assets for their customers around the globe. They also stated that those assets may not be listed or become available if any of the local jurisdictions or regulatory authorities does not approve it. Coinbase listing process involves that they list assets on a jurisdiction by jurisdiction basis meaning that coins to be listed are subject to applicable review and authorizations
Our decision to support any asset requires significant technical and compliance review and may be subject to regulatory approval in some jurisdictions. We therefore cannot guarantee whether or when any above-listed asset will be listed on a Coinbase product in any jurisdiction. As per our listing process , we will add new assets on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis, subject to applicable review and authorizations. The omission of assets from this publication does not disqualify any such asset from active review and potential listing.
Coinbase’s goal is to offer support for all assets that meet our technical standards and which comply with applicable laws. Over time we expect our customers around the world will have access through Coinbase platforms to at least 90% of the aggregate market cap of all digital assets in circulation.
