Coinbase Announces Improved Multichain Transfers for Clients

Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN) recently announced a faster, easier, and “less expensive” way of sending and receiving cryptocurrency via multiple networks, starting with Polygon, Coinbase’s first L2 integration, and Solana.

With the ongoing surge in blockchain usage and increase in gas fees, “the process of sending crypto across networks has been complex and time-consuming,” according to an update shared with CI.

As noted in the announcement, here’s what this announcement will mean for Coinbase and Coinbase Exchange customers:

  • Over the next month, eligible Coinbase and Coinbase Exchange customers will be able to send and receive ETH, MATIC, and USDC on Polygon, and they’ll be able to send and receive USDC on Solana.
  • Coinbase is reducing the time, effort, and high fees of today’s experience by letting customers easily send and receive crypto on multiple networks in minutes and at a fraction of the cost.
  • Over time, we’ll add support for more tokens and more networks.

This announcement is a step closer “to giving users easier access to dive into the web3 ecosystem.”
