Announced Nov 6, 2026: Coinbase to halt native ZetaChain trading Dec. 7 and convert balances to Ethereum ZETA. Affects: Coinbase and Coinbase Advanced customers holding or trading native ZETACHAIN. Source: stspg.io, verified Nov 9, 2026. Coinbase code 33NYAA8.
Coinbase said on 6 November 2026 that it will support ZetaChain's token migration by converting native ZetaChain (ZETACHAIN) held on Coinbase into ZetaChain (ZETA) on the Ethereum network from 7 to 10 December 2026. ZETACHAIN order books have moved to limit-only mode, and trading, sends and receives of ZETACHAIN will be disabled from 7 December.
Coinbase says ZetaChain has announced a token migration and the deprecation of its native layer 1 network. Balances will convert at about 1 ZETACHAIN to 1 ZETA, with no transaction fees for the conversion. Holders who do not want the automatic conversion must send their ZETACHAIN to a compatible self-custody wallet before 7 December.
Coinbase warns that ZETACHAIN sent to Coinbase deposit addresses on the ZetaChain network on or after 7 December will not be recoverable. ZETA held on Ethereum is not affected, and Coinbase says it will keep supporting and trading it. Limit-only mode means market orders cannot be placed on the ZETACHAIN books, only limit orders.
The conversion has not happened yet. ZetaChain's own plan, approved by token holders on 7 November with more than 99.99% in favor, halts its layer 1 around 9 December and mints ZETA 1:1 as a native token on Solana, with exchange balances converted without holder action. Coinbase's notice only describes conversion to ZETA on Ethereum and does not mention Solana, so holders outside Coinbase should follow ZetaChain's migration instructions instead.
“Please do not send ZETACHAIN to your Coinbase deposit addresses on the ZetaChain network on or after December 7, 2026, as these funds will not be recoverable.”
