As mentioned in a blog post, one of the most common requests that the digital asset firm gets from clients is to be able to purchase and sell more digital currencies on Coinbase.
Coinbase had announced a process for listing assets, “designed in part to accelerate the addition of more cryptocurrencies.” The exchange further noted that they are investing in new tools to “help people understand and explore cryptocurrencies.” They launched informational asset pages (see VGX), as well as a new section of the Coinbase website to answer various questions about crypto-assets, the company added.
