On Thursday, September 10, Coinbase pro mentioned that it is planning to launch Yearn.finance. After the launch, locations that support Coinbase will enjoy YFI on Coinbase, apart from New York State.
Coinbase also pointed out that on Monday, September 14, they will start accepting inbound transfers of YFI to Coinbase Pro. On Tuesday, September 15, trading on Coinbase will start, on or after 9 AM Pacific Time (PT), only if the digital asset meets liquidity conditions. YFI is not yet on Coinbase, but it will get announced if and when the support gets added.
Once enough supply of YFI gets established in Coinbase, trading on the YFI-USD order book will develop in four phases. These four phases are transfer-only, post-only, limit-only, and full trading. If any of the order books does not meet Coinbase standards for a healthy and orderly market, the platform may suspend trading. As each order book moves through the phases, Coinbase will announce the progress via their Coinbase Pro Twitter account.
