Uniswap (UNI)

Uniswap (UNI) is a token used for governance actions in the Uniswap protocol, a decentralized automated liquidity protocol built on Ethereum. Uniswap empowers developers, liquidity providers and traders to participate in a financial marketplace that is open and accessible to all.

One of the most common requests we hear from customers is to be able to buy and sell more cryptocurrencies on Coinbase. We announced a process for listing assets, designed in part to accelerate the addition of more cryptocurrencies. We are also investing in new tools to help people understand and explore cryptocurrencies. We launched informational asset pages (see UNI here), as well as a new section of the Coinbase website to answer common questions about crypto.

Customers can sign up for a Coinbase account here to buy, sell, convert, send, receive, or store UNI today.

Coinbase holds UNI tokens and an equity interest in Universal Navigation Inc. (the company developing the Uniswap platform). Coinbase intends to maintain its investment in UNI for the foreseeable future and maintains internal policies that address the timing of permissible disposition of its digital assets, including UNI tokens.

Bitcoin as a payment system

How did we transfer money thousands of years ago, when we all still lived in little villages and knew and trusted each other? We simply exchanged things with each other, as we still do with cash today. But when money moved online things got a bit trickier, and the way the banks and credit card systems dealt with this was to create a ‘ledger system’ – basically records of account showing who owns what. For example, if John wants to transfer $100 to Sarah online, the bank moves the money from John to Sarah. John cannot do it himself because there is a risk he might cheat – he can copy and paste the digital money (it’s only numbers on a computer after all) and send the $100 to two different people; nobody would know. Instead, we trust the bank to send the money and make sure it’s only sent to one person. Now, the bank can also cheat, but we trust them that they don’t. If the transfer is between two accounts at the same bank, it’s easy to transfer, but if it’s between two differe

Bitcoin Price Increases to $6,550 as Market Regains Confidence in Mid-Term Growth

The bitcoin price has increased to over $6,550, after dipping below $5,600 on November 12. Analysts have attributed the recent increase in the price of bitcoin to CME Group’s confirmed launch of its bitcoin futures exchange by the second week of December. Over the past two months, several high profile investors including billionaire hedge fund legend Mike Novogratz emphasized that a rapidly growing number of institutional and retail investors are preparing to engage in bitcoin and invest in the market. Most of the large-scale hedge funds and institutional investors can only invest in assets and stores of value with high liquidity, because in most cases, they are required to allocate tens of millions of dollars in minimum. In the past 12 months, the liquidity of bitcoin as increased substantially along with its market valuation, attracting the interests of institutional investors. In the upcoming months, upon the launch of CME’s bitcoin futures exchange, infrastructure around

Is Bitcoin used by criminals?

There is often public misconception that Bitcoin is mostly used by criminals, but nothing could be further from the truth. This is mainly because many people think Bitcoin is anonymous, when in fact it’s the opposite - all Bitcoin transactions are transparent for the whole world to see. People might not be able to link the identity to Bitcoin right away (that is also why it is sometimes called ‘pseudo anonymous’), but once they do, they can track everything you’ve ever done on the Bitcoin network. This makes it a particularly bad tool for illicit use. While Bitcoin might actually turn out to be one of the safest and least ‘bad’ ways to use money, it doesn’t mean that criminals don’t use it. Just like normal money, they do. But there are two important things to note - firstly, that as more data becomes available in the industry, the more it is becoming clear the number of bad uses is very, very minute - if the entire Bitcoin ecosystem is represented by a big mountain, the size of
