Coinbase to halt BADGER and STORJ trading on Sept. 28

  • Coinbase will suspend BADGER and STORJ trading on September 28, 2026.
  • IoTeX suspension on September 23 brings September delistings to three.
  • Holders can still withdraw funds after order books enter limit-only mode.

US-based cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase will suspend trading in Badger DAO (BADGER) and Storj (STORJ) on September 28, 2026, on or around 2 p.m. ET following its latest review of listing standards. The suspension will apply across Coinbase.com Simple and Advanced Trade, Coinbase Exchange and institutional venue Coinbase Prime. Coinbase said it regularly monitors supported assets to ensure they meet listing standards but did not publicly identify specific technical, legal, compliance or market deficiencies for either token. Ahead of the halt, BADGER and STORJ order books have been moved to limit-only mode: customers may place and cancel limit orders, matches may still occur when interest aligns, and market orders are blocked. After trading ends, holders retain access to BADGER and STORJ balances and can continue withdrawing, with no withdrawal deadline or automatic conversion program announced—unlike Coinbase’s earlier handling of DAI, when eligible balances were scheduled for conversion into USDS. On August 30, BADGER traded near $0.37, down about 4% over 24 hours within a roughly $0.365–$0.385 range, while STORJ traded near $0.074; Coinbase did not publish volume data showing its share of global markets for either token. Earlier in August, Coinbase also said it will suspend IoTeX (IOTX) on September 23, 2026, around 2 p.m. ET, bringing September named delistings to three, and previously ended trading in IDEX, LRC, OMNI, PIRATE and FIS while leaving withdrawals open. Badger DAO is a decentralized project focused on bringing Bitcoin-linked assets into DeFi, with BADGER used mainly for governance; Storj builds decentralized cloud storage with STORJ as the network payment token. While preparing these removals, Coinbase also advanced August listings: Basecat (BASECAT), DebtReliefBot (DRB), Dolphin (POD) and Grass (GRASS) were added to its roadmap, and GRASS and BASECAT have been listed so users can buy, sell, convert, send, receive or store them. Separately, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong highlighted strong early momentum for the US500 index perpetual—an index of the 500 largest companies in America—which crossed $100 million in 24-hour trading volume about a week after launch.
