Coinbase launches DEX trading portal in the UK, integrating DeFi platforms such as Uniswap and Aerodrome

Mars Finance reports that, according to DL News, Coinbase has opened a decentralized exchange (DEX) trading entry for customers in the UK. Users can access DeFi platforms such as Uniswap and Aerodrome via the Coinbase app, trade Base native assets, and plan to expand to other networks such as Solana. Coinbase UK’s CEO said that the UK is the most important market outside the United States, and this launch is intended to show the government that DeFi can be secure when operated in compliance. The service is designed with the concept of keeping the front end as simple as Coinbase, while connecting DeFi protocols on the back end. Coinbase will work with trusted third parties to screen for asset risks, such as high holding concentration, which may indicate the risk of a rug pull. This is part of Coinbase’s strategy to build an “all-in-one exchange”; this year, it also plans to roll out more services in the UK.
