Coinbase has officially launched its integrated DEX trading feature, enabling US users (ex. NY) to execute non-custodial token swaps directly from the Coinbase app.
The service leverages the Base network and connects to major liquidity sources through protocols 1inch and 0x.
This provides a secure, on-chain method for users to trade a curated list of new Base-native tokens, offering access to projects long before they are considered for a standard listing on the centralized exchange.
Facing a quarter-over-quarter contraction in trading volume, Coinbase’s introduction of integrated DEX trading is a direct initiative to attract a new wave of capital and user activity onto its platform.
