Coinbase Exploring the Addition of Cardano, Basic Attention Token, Stellar Lumens, Zcash, and 0x

In an announcement July 13, 2018, Coinbase unveiled the possibility of listing new coins on its exchange, including Cardano, Basic Attention Token, Stellar Lumens, Zcash, and 0x. Noticeably absent from the list is XRP.Today we are announcing that we're exploring the addition of the following assets to Coinbase: Cardano, Basic Attention Token, Stellar Lumens, Zcash and 0x. https://t.

When Coinbase listed Bitcoin Cash in December 2017, the price spiked significantly.

As a result, many accused Coinbase of insider trading.

"We are making this announcement internally at Coinbase and to the public at the same time to remain transparent with our customers about support for future assets."

One can only speculate that Coinbase is making an effort to avoid further allegations of insider trading.

Coinbase noted that these assets will need further exploratory work, and their future listings are not guaranteed.

Coinbase has not officially stated when they will be listed, or whether any of the coins mentioned will be listed at all.

They plan to provide updates about the process via the Coinbase blog and Twitter.

Unsurprisingly, the cryptocurrencies listed in Coinbase's announcement are up double-digit percentages.

It is clear that these price hikes are a result of the speculation surrounding a listing on Coinbase.
