USDC on Avalanche

Hi,

Does Coinbase plan to offer the ability to directly purchase USDC for Avalanche (or USDC on any other chains other than Ethereum)?

Hi @billy,

Coinbase currently only supports USDC running on Ethereum (ERC-20) - https://help.coinbase.com/en/coinbase/getting-started/crypto-education/usd-coin-usdc-faq

Thank you Judy, much appreciated.
Do you know if there are future plans to add USDC support on other chains though? I think the ability to purchase crypto assets directly from your wallet is a huge advantage for CB Wallet over others like Metamask (really helps for onboarding dapp users and making their experience easier). Just trying to get get a better idea of what the future asset/chain support offering looks like for Coinbase.

Hi @billy - thanks for your question.

We want to list and support every asset that we can. The time it takes to review new asset listings can vary depending on many different factors, so we cannot give guidance on when or if we will add USDC support on other chains. Typically, we can list tokens issued on a blockchain that Coinbase already supports (for example, ERC-20 tokens issued on Ethereum) more quickly than we can list tokens issued on blockchains that Coinbase does not yet support.

We published a blog post last year that covers some of the factors behind asset listings on Coinbase in more detail: A guide to listing assets on Coinbase | by Coinbase | The Coinbase Blog

If you have any additional questions, please let us know.
