Coinbase states that next year it plans on:
“scaling Coinbase Earn even further by adding more campaigns to the platform, to connect more blockchain networks with engaged crypto users.”
Crypto Education
Coinbase Earn compensates its users for learning about Ethereum-based token 0x (ZRX). Coinbase claims that so far the project “has allowed nearly a million unique users in 115+ countries to earn their share of hundreds of millions of dollars in crypto.”
