According to PANews on November 7, Runestone founder Leonidas published an open letter to Coinbase, requesting clarification of the status of $DOG's listing application and improvement of its listing process. Leonidas pointed out that although Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong said on November 2 that it was "free listing", the $DOG community tried to communicate many times but received no response. He strongly suggested that Coinbase improve the Asset Hub process to make it truly inclusive of all decentralized and fairly distributed memecoin communities, regardless of their organizational structure.

The $DOG community made two main requests to Coinbase: 1. If there are specific issues that hinder $DOG from being listed, Coinbase is expected to make them clear so that the community can resolve them; 2. Coinbase is required to explain in detail all listing criteria to ensure transparency, fairness, and community trust.
