Why should Coinbase list THORChain ($RUNE)?

Comments

1. Coinbase claims to be a supporter of crypto innovation. Yet, one of the most innovative protocols in DeFi, THORChain, remains unlisted. This omission is perplexing. $RUNE deserves a spot on Coinbase.

1. What is THORChain? It’s the only active protocol allowing cross-chain swaps natively for assets like:

→ $BTC
→ $ETH
→ $BNB
→ $XRP
→ $AVAX
→ $SOL (soon)
→ $ADA (soon)
And it achieves this without using wrappers, bridges, or custodians.

1. This isn't just hype or vaporware. THORChain has:

✅ Over $100B in processed volume
✅ More than 20K daily active users
✅ $700M+ market cap
✅ Over $40M in earnings this year
✅ No token inflation
✅ 600K+ $RUNE burned

1. On security: Coinbase lists tokens vulnerable to multisigs and custodians, common exploit targets. THORChain’s distinct architecture includes:

→ Decentralized vaults
→ Permissionless nodes
→ Economic security
→ No KYC, no middlemen

1. Also, XRP is live on THORChain with native swaps. Coinbase re-listed XRP, yet THORChain is already enabling decentralized swaps involving $XRP, $BTC, and others.

2. RUNE is more than a token; it runs THORChain's security:

[o1tm9fvc]

→ Bonds secure funds
→ Fees paid in RUNE
→ 5% of every fee burned
→ Remaining fees distributed to nodes and LPs

1. Controversial thought: $RUNE is potentially more decentralized than $BTC. Bitcoin mining is dominated by a few KYC’d pools, while THORChain has over 115 pseudonymous nodes, voting on upgrades and securing the network.

1. Why is it not listed on Coinbase?

• Too decentralized?
• Too disruptive?
• Not paying a listing fee?
The reasons are certainly not technical. Coinbase users should access genuine, functioning DeFi infrastructure.

1. For DeFi to thrive, protocols like THORChain need to be widely accessible. RUNE isn’t just another token; it’s key to cross-chain liquidity and native yield.

Time for action. Permissionless finance is here, and THORChain is at the forefront. ⚡️🔥
