Coinbase Delists BADGER and STORJ on September 28
Coinbase will suspend trading for Badger DAO (BADGER) and Storj (STORJ) on September 28, 2026, following a routine review of assets listed on its platform.
The suspension is scheduled for around 2 p.m. ET and will affect Coinbase’s retail trading services, including Simple and Advanced Trade, as well as its Exchange and Prime products.
The decision adds BADGER and STORJ to a series of trading changes implemented by Coinbase this year as the exchange continues reviewing assets and trading pairs against its listing standards.

Coinbase Confirms BADGER and STORJ Trading Suspension
Coinbase said it regularly evaluates assets available on its platform to determine whether they continue to meet its listing requirements. Following its latest review, the exchange decided to suspend trading for BADGER and STORJ.
The company did not identify a specific listing rule that either token had violated. Instead, Coinbase attributed the decision to its ongoing review process.
Both BADGER and STORJ have been available on Coinbase for several years, and neither token had previously received a similar suspension notice, according to the information provided.
The suspension will take effect across the exchange’s relevant trading venues on September 28, 2026, at approximately 2 p.m. ET.
Coinbase Moves BADGER and STORJ Markets to Limit-Only Mode
Before the full suspension, the order books for BADGER and STORJ have moved into limit-only mode. The transition restricts certain trading functions but does not immediately close the markets.
Under the limit-only arrangement, customers can continue placing and cancelling limit orders. Existing limit orders can also be matched when corresponding orders are available.
Market orders, however, are no longer accepted on either order book. Coinbase uses the limit-only stage as part of the process leading to a full trading suspension.
The change applies across the affected Coinbase services, including Simple and Advanced Trade, Exchange and Prime.
BADGER and STORJ Withdrawals Will Remain Available
The trading suspension will not prevent existing holders from accessing their BADGER and STORJ balances.
Coinbase confirmed that customers will continue to have access to their holdings and that withdrawals will remain available both before and after the September 28 cutoff.
The distinction means the action affects trading rather than custody of the assets. Customers will no longer be able to buy or sell BADGER and STORJ through the affected Coinbase markets once the suspension takes effect, but their ability to withdraw the assets will remain intact.

Coinbase Trading Suspensions Continue in 2026
The BADGER and STORJ suspension follows other trading changes implemented by Coinbase this year.
On August 6, 2026, the exchange paused six non-USD trading pairs: LSETH-ETH, MINA-EUR, GRT-GBP, MASK-GBP, CHZ-USDT and CRO-USDT. The underlying tokens remained supported through USD markets.
Coinbase is also scheduled to fully suspend trading for IoTeX (IOTX) on September 23, 2026, five days before the BADGER and STORJ suspension.
The three developments involve different assets or trading pairs, but each has been linked to Coinbase’s routine review process. The earlier non-USD pair changes focused on specific markets, while the upcoming actions involving IOTX, BADGER and STORJ involve broader trading suspensions.
Recent Coinbase Trading Suspension Timeline
| Announcement | Date | Type of Action |
|---|---|---|
| Six non-USD pairs paused | August 6, 2026 | Pair pause; tokens remained supported via USD |
| IoTeX (IOTX) full suspension | September 23, 2026 | Full token trading suspension |
| BADGER and STORJ pause | September 28, 2026 | Full token trading suspension |
The latest Coinbase action means BADGER and STORJ trading will end across the affected versions of the platform on September 28, 2026, while withdrawals will remain available to existing holders.
