CZ Urges Coinbase to List BNB Chain Tokens
Binance founder Changpeng Zhao has urged Coinbase to list more BNB Chain tokens, noting that despite Coinbase’s Base network projects being supported on Binance, no native BNB Chain assets are available on Coinbase. He emphasized BNB Chain’s recent surge—over 500 million transactions last month, a 150% increase—and highlighted CMB International’s $3.8 billion institutional money market fund launch on the network. Zhao called for a merit-based, transparent listing policy to boost user adoption and ensure fair exchange practices. His push, following Coinbase’s decision to add BNB to its Blue Carpet roadmap pending infrastructure and market-making support, has reignited debate over listing fees and competitiveness among major exchanges. Traders should watch for potential shifts in listing strategies and increased BNB liquidity as the outcome of this exchange rivalry.
Bullish
CZ’s call for Coinbase to list BNB Chain tokens, along with BNB’s strong network activity and institutional fund launches, points to increased liquidity and demand for BNB. If Coinbase follows through, BNB could see price appreciation from broader accessibility. In the short term, speculation around listing decisions may drive volatility, while in the long term, a transparent, merit-based listing environment fosters sustainable growth for BNB.
