Coinbase Halts BLAST Trading, Sets Oct. 26 Withdrawal Deadline

Exchange-led wind-downs like this shift the burden of exit squarely onto holders, and the synchronized deadlines across Coinbase and Upbit leave a narrow window to bridge to Ethereum mainnet. For RWA and infrastructure watchers, the more telling signal is how a Layer 2's shutdown is choreographed — coordinated delistings and withdrawal cutoffs rather than a single announcement. Whether other venues follow with their own BLAST deadlines, and how smoothly users bridge off before the network ceases, is the open question worth tracking.
