Coinbase, the largest US-based crypto exchange, just released information on its digital asset-listing process
In a new guide, Coinbase says the listing process requires candidates to complete an online questionnaire and submit the project’s whitepaper, team background, tokenomics, links to source code, block explorers and third-party audits.
[adinserter block="1"]The exchange will then assess business factors such as market demand, community traction and technical requirements for integration before the crypto asset goes through three core reviews: legal, compliance and technical security.
“We run a thorough security check – reviewing elements like contract code, design, and operational risks – to decide whether we can safely custody and list the token. For new blockchains, we evaluate their technical design, consensus mechanism, network resilience, and governance model.”
Coinbase says project teams can apply for free, but the timeline of approval varies from hours to months depending on the complexity of the project and the completeness of the application.
In a post on the social media platform X, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong says the exchange wrote the guide to be more transparent about the listing process.
“Listings are free and merit-based. Every asset is evaluated against the same standards.
