About a month ago I read that Waves is one of about 8 coins/tokens being considered for listing on Coinbase. Has there been any further news/progression on this and what do you think the chances are for Waves to be selected?
Yes, there was information about this. Coinbase
wrote about listing eight new asset in aug 5.
I think the Waves have a good chance.

I have high hopes for three of them - Waves, Matic and Harmony One. Perhaps the good news that sasha wil reveal soon has something to do with this or if not related, that the good news would be the catalyst needed for Coinbase to list Waves.
