An X post on 11th December, 2025, by Solana’s official account has confirmed that Coinbase is to allow Solana-based tokens to be traded on its platform via a DEX, or a decentralized exchange.
Solana’s first post showed a snippet of the demo of the DEX, showing how trades can be made using the integration.
The initial wave of reactions to the post was mostly bullish. The update now adds a new level of interaction between one of crypto’s most used blockchains and the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the U.S.
DEXs are known for hosting thousands of cryptocurrencies that are meme coins, lesser-known tokens, and newer cryptos entering the market. While they offer the investor a larger variety of tokens to trade from, they’re also known to be filled with potential scams and cryptocurrencies with the potential for rug pulls.
