“Acquiring Liquifi gives us best-in-class capabilities in token cap table management, vesting, and compliance, and positions Coinbase to support builders earlier in their journey,” Greg Tusar, VP of institutional product for Coinbase, said in the announcement.
Tusar added that launching tokens is “too hard,” due to legal, tax, and compliance challenges. “We want to remove these barriers by providing both the product and the expertise to make token launches simple, compliant, and scalable. Our vision is a world where launching a token is easier, faster, and more global than issuing traditional startup equity.”
In May, Coinbase acquired Deribit, the biggest crypto options platform, in a mammoth $2.9 billion deal. This followed its January acquisition of on-chain ads and attribution platform Spindl.
