Coinbase Launches Web App to Unify User Crypto Experience

On Thursday,Coinbaserevealedplans for a new web appallowing users to manage their digital assets comprehensively.

The application is designed to integrate multiple wallets, enabling users to view and manage their entire portfolio, including tokens, NFTs, and DeFi positions, across different blockchains like Bitcoin, Solana, and Ethereum.

This move is part of Coinbase’s broader strategy to bring approximately 100 million users onto the blockchain.

Sid Coelho-Prabhu, Coinbase’s Senior Director of Product Management, stated that user feedback drove the development of this web app. He said,

“This is one big step in that direction. A user that we send to this portal is going to have a really easy way to set up a wallet, if they have multiple wallets they can configure that as well.”

According to Coelho-Prabhu, users needed a simplified way to manage their assets and view their portfolios on the blockchain. He emphasized that the app’s goal is to make on-chain activities more accessible and user-friendly.

Notably, thenew Coinbase Wallet web appoffers a range of features designed to enhance the user experience.

Users can connect multiple wallets and view their overall cryptocurrency balance in one place. According to a Coinbase tweet, the app supports trading over 2 million tokens across eight chains, providing a seamless trading experience with any connected wallet.

Additionally, the app is integrated with Coinbase smart wallets, and is said to have features such as gasless transactions on certain mints and the capability to spend directly from a Coinbase account on-chain via MagicSpend.

Furthermore, the app also includes features that allow the creation and distribution of NFTs directly on the platform for creators.

This functionality will empower creators by giving them more control and additional avenues for monetization.

According to Coinbase, the app aims to centralize all current on-chain products, making it a “one-stop” destination for all blockchain-related activities.

While launching new features, Coinbase continues to advocate for better regulation in the digital asset market.

Coinbase has also been named an additional custodian for VanEck’s Bitcoin Trust, highlighting its ongoing efforts to enhance security and the user experience.

This role involves holding Bitcoin primarily in cold storage to protect against cyber threats, reinforcing Coinbase’s commitment to providing secure and reliable services.

Notably, this “one-stop’ app is a step by Coinbase towards making blockchain technology more accessible and manageable for seasoned and novice users.

Relatedly, this move comes afterBybit overtook Coinbase to become the second-largest exchangeby volume after Binance, according to a report from crypto research firm Kaiko.

This growth comes as Binance’s dominance declined from 60% to 54%, with Bybit benefiting from increased Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) trading. These now account for 53% of its market share, compared to 43% on Binance.

In June 2023, the SEC sued Coinbase and Binance for securities violations, with Binance facing a historic $4.3 billion settlement for Anti-Money Laundering violations.

Despite these legal challenges, Coinbase also reported significant growth, with a 193% increase in trading volumes, slightly trailing the average growth rate of other major exchanges.

Who is Satoshi Nakamoto?
"Who is Satoshi Nakamoto?" is dedicated to the mysterious creation of Bitcoin, and acts as the showcase artwork within Javier Arrés’ exploratory series "Bitcoin, The Origin". "Who is the creator of Bitcoin?" The artist, Arrés, explores this question, and the feelings of doubt and mystery that accompany it, through his unique artistic language. An unknown, an enigma. It should be remembered that the name Satoshi Nakamoto is a pseudonym of Bitcoin's author or authors and gives us little insight into its true creator. For this Visual Toy, Arrés uses the signature claw machine, his famous half-operation, to symbolize our collective ignorance and unconfirmed belief: As soon as it has the stuffed animal within its grasp and appears to have solved the puzzle, the animal escapes again, and again. At present, there are three more public and studied possibilities who are either believed to be the creators of the currency or who directly claim the creation of it. It may be all or none of them, yet these three personalities leave us clues which are an important part of this interesting enigma. For this moment, it will remain unknown... In this artwork, Arrés elevates the claw machine from the apparatus, to an iconic pop art object serving as an important element to the Bitcoin creation narrative. Action is everywhere, with each movement serving an iconographical or metaphorical purpose related directly to cryptocurrency: Various ups and downs, roller coasters, mining points, robot, coins and more speak to a sense of hope, risk, mystery, randomness and possibility of pay out. Hundreds of manically thought out details make this creation one of the artist’s most complex Visual Toys to date. ------- "Bitcoin, The Origin" is a set of two Visual Toys, titled "Who is Satoshi Nakamoto" and "It’s Alive!" which reflect and explore the mystery and enigmas behind the creation of Bitcoin. Arrés presents these proposals to us in his signature style, full of iconography, fantasy, maniacal animations and a panoply of details (both subtle and overt) which simultaneously fascinate, hypnotize, and narrate this historical milestone through the singular vision of the artist. Through this series, Arrés freezes a crucial moment of cryptocurrency history, taking a still photo under his vision and turning it into two unique crypto artworks. ---- More info about Javier Arrés: https://javierarres.com/about.html
Block Chain Dungeon
Once upon a time... a little boy named Leo loved to paint, draw and experiment. He also loved to play with blocks and chains, which drew him again and again into the rooms of his friends Michel and Angelo. Often they also met in virtual rooms of Cryptovoxels, Decentraland, Somnium Space or Sandbox to create new inventions, read books about new technologies, or just swing the brushes. But on this day something gigantic happened. A good friend of Leo came to visit and brought his girlfriend Mona, who wanted a piece of Leo's art on her skin. This was the birth of the NFT's, as Leo developed Non Fungible Tattoos in the Block Chain Dungeon of Michel and Angelo. From that day on people from all over the world came to get NFT's from Leo or one of his students, like "Skeenee the rat", who controls the NFT machine with his laptop. A new age began.
