Coinbase Launches Instant Onchain Token Trading for Base and Solana
Coinbase has introduced a new feature in its mobile app called 'Launches' that enables users to discover and trade newly issued onchain tokens on Base and Solana blockchains immediately after they are created.
The Launches tab uses automated infrastructure indexing technology to detect and surface newly created onchain tokens in real time, bypassing the traditional listing process. This allows users to buy and sell tokens as soon as they are minted on these two blockchains.
Coinbase has integrated routing technology from Jupiter, a decentralized exchange aggregator, to optimize liquidity and pricing for Solana-based token trades. This move is part of the broader trend toward instant, onchain trading that reduces friction between token creation and retail access.
