Those that meet the criteria may be listed, although not necessarily available right away to all Coinbase customers because listings will be added on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis, rather than supporting all assets globally.
As a result, some coins won’t be available for Coinbase customers to trade in places where local regulations either expressly them or are unclear about their legality.
