The acquisition of Blockspring came after Coinbase took on some expansion activities. As such, between April and August 2018 the exchange acquired Earn.com, trading platform Paradex, Keystone Capital Corp, and digital identity startup Distributed Systems. At the end of 2018 the company announced the intention to support 31 additional currencies, and Blockspring will help Coinbase expand its developer tools.
