Coinbase Axes Five Tokens Amid Upgrades – Check Your Portfolio Now!

Coinbase just pulled the plug on five cryptocurrencies—citing ’token upgrades’ as the reason. If you’re holding any of these assets, it’s time to scramble or watch your positions vanish into the crypto void.


Which Tokens Got the Boot?
The exchange isn’t naming names yet, but insiders whisper this is another ’housecleaning’ move disguised as progress. Classic finance maneuver: cut loose the underperformers and call it innovation.


What Now?
Sell, swap, or brace for impact. And remember: in crypto, even ’upgrades’ can feel like a rug pull.

Coinbase, one of the most trusted and regulated crypto exchanges in the world, has announced it will suspend trading for five tokens, including Galxe (GAL), Litentry (LIT), Mines of Dalarnia (DAR), Orion Protocol (ORN), and PARSIQ (PRQ).

The trading halt will officially begin on May 16, 2025, at around 2 PM ET across all Coinbase platforms, Coinbase.com, Coinbase Exchange, and Coinbase Prime.

Why These Tokens Are Being Delisted

According to Coinbase, this decision isn’t about poor performance or security issues. Instead, it has to do with token versions. Each of these projects, GAL, LIT, DAR, ORN, and PRQ, has released new versions of their tokens.

That means the original versions listed on Coinbase are now considered outdated and no longer meet the platform’s listing standards. 

Coinbase cares a lot about keeping things safe, reliable, and clear for its users. When tokens go through major upgrades or migrate to new contracts, the old ones can cause problems or stop working well. That’s why Coinbase is removing these older tokens from trading.

Trading Already in Limit-Only Mode

To ease the transition, Coinbase has already moved all five token pairs to limit-only mode. This means users can still place or cancel limit orders, and trades may happen, but no market orders or advanced trading types are currently supported. 

It’s a heads-up to the community, get your affairs in order before full suspension takes effect.

What Happens to Users Holding These Tokens?

If you hold any of these tokens on Coinbase, it’s time to act. You might want to withdraw your holdings or convert them before May 16. After the suspension, your ability to trade them will be gone, at least on Coinbase.
