Coinbase Launches Full Trading of Basic Attention Token

American cryptocurrency exchange and wallet provider Coinbase has
announced the rollout of full trading of the Basic Attention Token
(BAT) at Coinbase.com and in the Coinbase Android and iOS apps, per
a blog post published Nov. 8.
According to the announcement, Coinbase’s customers can now buy,
sell, send, receive, or store BAT along with other digital currencies
supported on the platform. The exchange also notes that BAT will be
available for customers in most jurisdictions, except initially for
residents of the state of New York .
Coinbase announced that it started accepting inbound transfers of BAT
to Coinbase Pro last week, indicating that BAT trading would only
start once the coin established sufficient liquidity.
The exchange stipulated that the token would undergo four listing
stages, including “transfer-only,” where users will be able to
transfer BAT into Coinbase Pro accounts; “post-only,” which would
enable customers to post limit orders; “limit-only,” where limit
orders start matching; and the final stage “full trading,” which gives
full access to trading services, including limit, market, and stop
orders.
After the previous announcement, the BAT price spiked, surging by
over 20 percent on the day. Today, the altcoin's price had a far more
measured response, increasingly only slightly before slumping in the
last few hours. At press time, BAT is down 3.87 percent on the day
according to CoinMarketCap.
Still the cryptocurrency has seen a steady growth on its weekly chart
from $0.253 on Nov. 2 to its highest weekly price point of around
$0.379 today. At press time, BAT is trading at $0.321.
In October, Coinbase added support for 0x (ZRX), making it the first
ERC-20 token available for trade on the platform. In the same month,
the exchange also launched the first U.S. dollar stablecoin on the
platform, USDC, in partnership with blockchain -powered payments
technology company Circle .
