Headline: Coinbase to suspend trading of BADGER and STORJ on Sept. 28; order books moved to limit-only Coinbase announced on Aug. 28 that it will suspend trading for Badger DAO (BADGER) and Storj (STORJ) on Sept. 28, 2026, at about 2 p.m. ET across Coinbase.com (Simple and Advanced Trade), Coinbase Exchange and Coinbase Prime. The exchange said the move follows its routine reviews of listed assets but did not specify which technical, legal, compliance or market factors led to the decision. What changes now - Coinbase has already placed BADGER and STORJ order books into limit-only mode. Traders can place and cancel limit orders; market orders are disabled. Orders may remain unfilled if liquidity is insufficient. - The restriction covers Coinbase’s retail, professional and institutional trading services. After the Sept. 28 cutoff, customers will no longer be able to buy or sell these tokens on the affected Coinbase platforms. Balances and withdrawals - Coinbase did not announce any automatic conversion for remaining BADGER or STORJ balances (unlike its prior DAI-to-USDS conversion). - Users will retain access to their token balances and can withdraw them; no withdrawal deadline was provided. Coinbase emphasized users should verify the receiving address and compatible blockchain before sending irreversible transfers. Why it matters - Losing Coinbase liquidity can reduce access and widen spreads for holders who rely on the exchange, though other centralized and decentralized venues may continue to support the tokens subject to their own listing decisions and regional rules. - Coinbase says its monitoring uses onchain and offchain signals and that material changes to a project or its understanding of an asset can trigger delisting reviews, but it didn’t disclose specifics or share volume/liquidity data for BADGER and STORJ. About the tokens - BADGER is the governance token of Badger DAO, a DeFi project focused on Bitcoin-related assets. - STORJ is the utility/payment token used in the Storj decentralized cloud-storage network. Market reaction - As of Aug. 30, BADGER traded near $0.37, down about 4% over 24 hours and moving roughly between $0.365 and $0.385 during the day. STORJ traded near $0.074 with no clear, immediate price move attributable solely to the announcement. Wider context and timeline - This is not Coinbase’s only scheduled September removal: IoTeX trading is set to end on Sept. 23 at about 2 p.m. ET. In August the exchange suspended five tokens (IDEX, LRC, OMNI, PIRATE and FIS) and left withdrawals open after trading halted. - Customers holding BADGER or STORJ have until Sept. 28 to complete trades on Coinbase (subject to limit-only rules). The exchange has not announced an appeal or reconsideration process. What to do next - If you hold BADGER or STORJ on Coinbase, consider whether to withdraw to an external wallet or move balances to another venue before Sept. 28.
