This was in response to Paxos receiving a directive from the New York State Department of Financial Services to cease coin issuance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Moreover, the crypto community has responded in a number of ways to Coinbase&#8217;s usual outright delisting of cryptocurrency assets from its trading platforms.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">While some users are requesting further explanations regarding their purported &#8220;listing standards,&#8221; others believe that <strong>the coins that were just delisted are &#8220;dead projects<\/strong>&#8221; with negligible trading volume and that they likely cost the crypto exchange more in maintenance fees than they are worth.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Some other commenters further indicate that Coinbase takes into account criteria such as smart contract standards, compliance with relevant regulatory standards, and any suspicious activity on the part of those projects or their creators.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Regarding trading volumes, a user noted that certain other coins that are still available on the exchange had a lower trade volume than those that were delisted, suggesting that might not necessarily be a factor.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Data from <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/coinmarketcap.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Coinmarketcap<\/a><\/strong> also reveals that <strong>Rally (RLY), OMG Network (OMG), <\/strong>and <strong>Loom Network (LOOM)<\/strong>, which are among the assets affected by Coinbase\u2019s most recent action, had a respective 24-hour trading volume of <strong>$6,379,650, $37,245,940, <\/strong>and <strong>$101,789,884<\/strong> at press time.
