Runestone founder issues open letter to Coinbase, asking it to clarify the status of DOG listing application

Runestone founder Leonidas published an open letter to Coinbase on X, asking for clarification on the status of DOGs listing application.
It stated: “We acknowledge that Mr. Armstrong (Coinbase CEO) posted on November 2, 2024 claiming ‘free listing’, but despite the DOG community’s repeated attempts to contact Coinbase, no response has been received to date.
We strongly recommend that Coinbase improve its Asset Hub process to be truly inclusive of all decentralized and fairly distributed Memecoin communities, regardless of organizational structure. Currently, the inherent lack of access to information requirements for truly decentralized Memecoins (like DOG, as well as Bitcoin itself) creates an uneven playing field and undermines the core principles of decentralized cryptocurrency. This structure could inadvertently favor VC-backed Memecoins, potentially stifle decentralized, fairly distributed Memecoins, and result in company-controlled Memecoins being sold off by insiders to retail investors. We urge Coinbase to take proactive steps to address this systemic issue and create a fairer listing process that reflects the diverse landscape of the Memecoin market.
In the interests of clarity and fairness, we respectfully request the following from Coinbase, including a formal meeting to discuss these key issues:
1. Specific issues regarding DOG: If any specific issues are preventing DOG from being listed, they must be clearly stated so that the community can resolve them;
2. Listing criteria: All listing criteria adopted by Coinbase need to be fully and in detail explained to ensure transparency, trust, and fairness.

Crypto.com publicly warned by Polish regulator
