Coinbase Institutional has announced the results of its Q4 2025 rebalancing for the Coinbase 50 Index (COIN50), the firm’s benchmark for the top 50 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization and liquidity on the platform.
This quarter, six new digital assets were added to the index: Hedera (HBAR), Mantle (MANTLE), VeChain (VET), Flare (FLR), Sei (SEI), and Immutable (IMX). These additions reflect the growing interest and trading volume around these tokens, signaling rising institutional and retail confidence.
Hedera (HBAR) and VeChain (VET), in particular, have gained popularity for their enterprise-grade blockchain solutions, while Immutable (IMX) has become a major player in the Web3 gaming space. Mantle, Sei, and Flare are also gaining traction with their layer-1 innovations and ecosystem developments.
Which Tokens Were Removed?
As part of the rebalancing process, six assets were removed from the COIN50 index due to declining performance or trading activity. These include SKALE (SKL), Akash Network (AKT), Livepeer (LPT), Synthetix (SNX), Helium (HNT), and Convex Finance (CVX).
The removal of these assets doesn’t necessarily signal failure, but rather a shift in momentum and liquidity preference within Coinbase’s institutional-grade offering. These decisions are made based on transparent criteria around market cap, liquidity, and trading activity.
What This Means for Investors
The quarterly rebalancing of the Coinbase 50 Index ensures that it remains a reliable indicator of the most active and influential cryptocurrencies available on the platform. For institutional investors using the COIN50 as a benchmark, these changes can influence portfolio strategies and market sentiment.
It also highlights the growing relevance of projects like IMX and SEI in today’s competitive crypto landscape. Staying updated with such rebalancing events can provide insights into market trends and which assets are gaining favor among institutional players.
