We are continuing to explore the addition of custody support for new assets for customers around the world.

Coinbase Custody is one of the world’s largest and most trusted crypto custodians. Since its inception, it has focused on providing a highly secure and sophisticated storage solution for institutions and individuals that hold large crypto holdings. In addition to industry-leading security and insurance protection, Coinbase Custody has remained on the leading edge of crypto-native features such as staking, governance and decentralized finance (DeFi). We have built a system that is secure, and reliable, but also has the features and functionality that most traders and financial institutions are looking for.

Over the coming months, we plan to support more assets and launch new features that will continue to demonstrate that Coinbase Custody is one of the most trusted and innovative places for institutions to store their crypto assets.

Part of growing the cryptoeconomy, Coinbase Custody will also be exploring ways to serve more institutional clients across the Asia-Pacific region. Most recently, Coinbase Custody has added support for FTX (FTT) and Serum (SRM).

While not all assets, chains and features will be available in all regions, a full list of digital assets that Coinbase Custody is exploring is below.

Aave (AAVE), Amp (AMP), Ampleforth (AMPL), Ankr (ANKR), ArCoin (ArCoin), Audius (AUDS), Barnbridge (BOND), BitTorrent Token (BTT), Centrifuge (RAD), Conflux Network (CFX), Curve (CRV), DFI.Money (YFII), Elrond eGold (EGLD), JUST (JST), JUST Stablecoin (USDJ), Meta (MTA), MovieBloc (MBL), mStable (MUSD), Neo (NEO), Nervos (CKB), Nexus Mutual (NXM), NKN (NKN), NuCypher (NU), Ontology (ONT), Paxos Gold (PAXG), Paxos Standard (PAX), Reserve (RSV), Reserve Rights (RSR), Request Network (REQ), Skale (SKL), SUN Token (SUN), tBTC (TBTC), Terra (LUNA), The Graph (GRT), Tron (TRX), VeChain (VET), WING (WING), WINK (WIN), Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC)

Our decision to support any asset for custody requires significant technical and compliance review and may be subject to regulatory approval in some jurisdictions. We therefore cannot guarantee whether or when any above-listed asset will be available for Coinbase Custody in any jurisdiction. We will add custody support jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction, subject to applicable review and authorizations. The omission of assets from this publication does not disqualify any such asset from active review and potential custody support.

Our customers can expect Coinbase Custody to make future, similar announcements as we continue to explore the addition of numerous assets.

Coinbase Custody offers one of the most sophisticated and reliable crypto custody solutions in the world. To learn more about Coinbase Custody click here.
