Coinbase explorations

[Alhamza24]

There is no apparent correlation in assets that have qualified for a Coinbase listing. The probability of a coin explored by Coinbase eventually getting listed is 31%. Valuations of each coin proposed for a Coinbase listing should reflect a price that accounts for an expected listing probability value of 31%. Basically, the price should appreciate to reflect what the price would be with a Coinbase listing * 0.31.

However, there is a strong variance in the price movement experienced by coins after a Coinbase listing is suggested.

This means either there are market participants:

- have insider info on the listing

- are unusually confident in which coins is selected

- market is irrationally pricing the potential listing

Can you notice a correlation in the assets being selected?

Detecting one would make way for valuable information asymmetry, turning the delta between (analyzed) listing EV of detected winners and broad set into an alpha

If you look closely at most of the tokens being listed recently on CoinBase their Ventures do have stake in them, it is just like promoting their own shitcoins. I think what CB is doing now is to beat Binance to its game in US, Binance is looking to compete and take significant share of the US market and what do people want most Altcoins

I do not have any information but definitely insider information works for all major businesses and people at authoritative posts they do take advantage either directly or indirectly but it does happen all around the world and it cannot be stopped, i guess.

Coinbase had a slow approach to adding coins but the last two lots were large as they are growing into a full fledged crypto exchange. They might have their own metrics on qualifying the coins and they are also guided by SEC's regulations. Coinbase listing is a huge thing for the coin as it opens a large capital of traditional traders who use their banks to invest and trade on crypto.

Any coin proposed for coinbase listing eventually starts appreciating in price. See what BNT (Bancor) is doing presently, also OGN had a 100% run after being proposed for listing. The good point about some suggested coins for listing is that, Coinbase must have done proper analysis and background check on the project, before proposing them for listing for further analysis. This makes crypto enthusiasts FOMO on these coins, hence causing price spike.

I would say mostly it is due to coins getting attention that lists them, not the other way around. There is no way that people would be getting insider info that it will be listed and show attention afterwards, because if there is no attention beforehand they would not list it, so there has to be some attention before it got listed.

So, I would say that people should be focusing on which coin is getting a ton of attention and not yet listed properly, if that means it will get listed, you could make a good amount of profit, they could be listed in some small places and check them out, if they are listed in tiny bad places and outvolume most smaller coins, that means they would be basically getting listed on bigger places and get a ton of volume.

I think there is one good project that has been explored by Coinbase and until now there are still many rumors, namely waves, we know that Waves has partnered with Microsoft, and that's the positive side, it seems that the requirements to be listed on Coinbase have been fulfilled, hopefully it can happen

I think they try to select real projects. There are so many scams out there, and coinbase is heavily regulated in US.

Also, they are worried about  51% attacks. For example, ETC suffered 3 attacks in the last 7 days. BTG also suffered some attacks in the past and so on.

Personally, I think they could even restrict more the coins that are list. Coinbase is not an exchange like binance, which tries to list all possible coins in the world for money...

I liked coinbase when it was small exchange and you could only buy few tokens but they have changed their business model. I am not sure if there is an insider information but they are definitely working to become full fledged exchange where you can trade all altcoins.

i never actually liked this explorations things as it just looks like a way to pump some tokens. they should've published a listing directly instead. i wonder if some projects can pay some fees just to get their project name on the list so it get pumped 20% or so.

I have no idea about their basis and factors for them to list a coin but there's a strong attachment for real projects. Just like Binance, they have a basis for projects that shall bring to their platform.

They are growing and they have to adopt the demand of their users so these addition to their listing is part of it. But it's good to know that they are not just listing any project as they wish.

They are heavily regulated which means they would need to abide those laws that had been imposed for them to follow or else then their business wont exist at all in the first place.

In regards on listing out coins then they'll surely look for the best ones and delisted later on if they do find out that its a total shit.

I havent read it up but you can take up some read here: https://listing.coinbase.com/

When it comes to criterias then pretty sure that it wont really be that simple.

It didn't said the basis of it although those are the basic information that a project has to know if they want to be listed on Coinbase. It said that Coinbase has their own evaluation and I think they'll never disclose that to the public.

What's good in application, they don't ask for fee.  Thanks for the link mate.
