The announcement from Coinbase<\/a> Markets comes less than ten days after Jeff Dorman, CIO of Arca fund, publicly denounced glaring inconsistencies in the platform’s listing policy. Dorman highlighted that Coinbase was listing “some of the absolute worst assets” while systematically ignoring high-performing tokens<\/strong> from competing platforms like Binance coin. According to him, the exchange remained caught between two contradictory strategies: that of an open marketplace<\/strong> and that of an ultra-selective platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The pressure intensified<\/strong> when Jesse Pollak, head of the Base network at Coinbase, stated that “exchange listings should be at 0%<\/strong>.” This was an indirect comment on the controversy between Binance<\/a> and Limitless Labs. The company, backed by Coinbase Ventures, had accused Binance of demanding 8% of the total supply<\/strong> of its token<\/a> in exchange for a potential listing<\/strong>. The crypto community quickly turned this argument against Coinbase. Why not list BNB if transparency and fairness are truly priorities?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Adding BNB to Coinbase’s roadmap doesn’t guarantee an immediate listing. The exchange specified that trading will only begin once “market-maker support and sufficient technical infrastructure<\/strong>” are in place. This wording leaves considerable room for maneuver. Nevertheless, it reflects a clear intention to open up to Binance’s<\/strong> flagship asset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
