What is CoinList?
CoinList is a token sale platform operated by Amalgamated Token Services Inc. Its homepage lists $1.2B+ raised across 85+ raises. US residents contract with CoinList Services LLC under Delaware law, and each sale's deal page states which jurisdictions can buy. CoinList has moved to self-custody wallets that users control.
How CoinList works
Each CoinList token sale has its own deal page that sets the eligible jurisdictions, the minimum purchase and the sale structure.
In a First Come First Served sale, you fund your CoinList Wallet with at least the minimum in USDC or USDT, pass KYC, then submit a purchase request once the sale opens. Requests cannot exceed the stablecoins you hold, and anyone who buys after supply runs out gets the money back in the wallet within 5 business days.
The other structure, Filling from the Bottom, uses a water-filling method: every participant first receives an equal allocation, and larger requests are filled only after that. The wallet itself is an embedded non-custodial wallet built with Privy. It runs on Ethereum mainnet only and supports USDC, USDT, ETH and a fixed list of sale tokens such as ONDO, ETHFI and WCT. A supported token sent on another network, for example USDC on Base, will not show in the interface.
How to start with CoinList
- You need a CoinList account and individual KYC.
- For US residents that means full name, state, residential address, date of birth, a selfie with liveness check, a government ID, occupation, your Social Security Number and a phone number.
- CoinList can also ask for proof of address issued within the last 3 months and proof of source of funds.
- Some deals are limited to accredited investors, which the help center defines using the SEC thresholds of $200K income or $1 million net worth excluding your home.
- Before a sale, hold USDC or USDT on Ethereum mainnet plus enough ETH for gas, or the transaction fails.
- You can secure the account with a passkey or an authenticator app, and you can export the wallet's private key from Settings.
- Ondo Global Markets tokenized stocks listed on CoinList are closed to US and Canadian residents.
CoinList fees and limits
The help center does not list a buyer fee on new token sales. The terms say CoinList may receive fees or other compensation paid by users, issuers or partners, and that it will disclose fees where required. What you pay for certain is Ethereum gas on each purchase and transfer. Users moving balances off the old custodial platform pay the standard legacy withdrawal fees listed at old.coinlist.co/fees.
Risks to know before using CoinList
- CoinList states that it cannot reset, recover or protect your wallet if the private key is exposed, and that it has no access to funds in the self-custody wallet.
- Assets sent on an unsupported network do not appear in the app.
- The transition to self-custody wound down staking and onchain offers by November 30, 2025, paused the Karma program, and put future token unlocks and distributions under review, with methods that may differ by token.
- The terms name CoinList Services LLC as the counterparty for US residents and state that CoinList is not a bank, broker-dealer or investment adviser.
- CoinList can freeze funds or close accounts it links to a prohibited use, and it does not accept duplicate accounts.
