Coinbase delisting news is back in focus after the exchange confirmed it will pull the plug on both Badger DAO and Storj later this month.

The move follows the platform's routine review process and adds two more tokens to a growing list of assets losing their US listing this year.
According to the firm's own statement, it regularly monitors listed assets to confirm they still meet its standards, and based on a recent review, both BADGER and STORJ will be suspended from trading on September 28, 2026, around 2 PM ET.
This latest Coinbase delisting news update did not name a specific rule either token broke, only pointing to the outcome of that ongoing review process.
Both tokens have been available on the platform for several years, and neither has faced a similar suspension notice before now.
The pause covers every venue tied to the firm, including its main retail platform in both Simple and Advanced Trade modes, plus its dedicated exchange product and its institutional Prime service, per Coinbase's follow-up post.

Ahead of the cutoff date, order books for both tokens have already shifted into limit-only mode, which changes the process without shutting it off completely.
Key points about this transition stage include:
Existing limit orders can still be placed and cancelled at any time
Order matches may still occur under limit-only conditions
Market orders are no longer accepted on either order book
The shift to limit-only mode is a standard step before a full suspension
Perhaps the most important part of this Coinbase delisting news update for current holders is that nothing happens to the coins already sitting in an account.
The firm confirmed that BADGER and STORJ balances remain fully accessible, and withdrawals will continue working as normal both before and after the September 28 cutoff.
This distinction matters because a pause in trading is not the same as an asset freeze—holders simply lose the ability to buy or sell on this platform rather than losing access to their funds outright.

This announcement is not an isolated event this year. Earlier in August, the platform paused six non-USD pairs — including LSETH-ETH, MINA-EUR, GRT-GBP, MASK-GBP, CHZ-USDT, and CRO-USDT — as part of a similar liquidity-focused review, though the underlying assets themselves stayed fully supported through USD markets.
Separately, a full trading suspension for IoTeX was set for September 23, 2026, just days before this BADGER and STORJ pause takes effect.
The pattern across all three cases points to the same routine review process rather than any single coordinated crackdown.
| Announcement | Date | Type Of Action |
| August 6, 2026 | Pair pause: tokens remained supported via USD | |
| September 23, 2026 | Full token trading suspension | |
| BADGER and STORJ pause | September 28, 2026 | Full token trading suspension |
This round of delisting coverage confirms that BADGER and STORJ trading will stop on September 28, 2026, across every version of the platform, while leaving withdrawals fully open for existing holders.
Coming just days after the IoTeX suspension and weeks after six pairs were paused, this latest move fits a broader pattern of tightening listing standards through the second half of the year.
