Coinbase Exploring Support for 18 New Digital Assets

According to a June 10 blog post from Coinbase, the exchange is exploring support for Aave (LEND), Aragon (ANT), Arweave (AR), Bancor (BNT), Compound Coin (COMP), DigiByte (DGB), Horizen (ZEN), Livepeer (LPT), NuCypher (NKMS), Numeraire (NMR), KEEP Network, Origin Protocol (OGN), Ren (REN), Render Network (RNDR), Siacoin (SC), SKALE Network, Synthetix (SNX), and VeChain (VET). “Our customers can expect Coinbase to make future, similar announcements as we continue to explore the addition of numerous assets across the platform.”.

Coinbase Custody, the international institutional cryptocurrency holdings arm of the exchange, appears to have accidentally announced stablecoin Tether (USDT) would be part of the token expansion in a Tweet earlier today. Recent outages during Bitcoin (BTC) price surges coupled with the news Coinbase may sell its blockchain intelligence arm to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) has prompted massive withdrawals from the platform.
