The time conversions are a calculation, not from Coinbase. The notice gives 32 days before the suspension.
BAL is the governance token of Balancer, a decentralized exchange protocol. TNSR is the governance token of Tensor, a Solana NFT marketplace. Governance tokens let holders vote on a project's decisions.
Limit-only mode means limit orders can be placed and canceled, and matches may occur. Per the announcement, you can:
Keep holding BAL and TNSR on Coinbase
Place or cancel limit orders until the suspension
Plan any withdrawal using Coinbase's supported networks
According to Coinbase's notice, funds will remain accessible and withdrawals will continue after the trading suspension. Holders should check the supported withdrawal network and any updated Coinbase instructions before transferring tokens.
Until Coinbase suspends BAL and TNSR trading, limit orders are the route the announcement describes. The notice covers Coinbase platforms only. It doesn't say whether trading could return later.
Coinbase has used similar wording before. Itsstatus page shows IoTeX trading ending on September 23, 2026, and Badger DAO and Storj on September 28, 2026. Each announcement came about a month ahead.
Coinbase's October 6 announcement for Blast named a network shutdown. The BAL and TNSR notice names no cause. It also doesn't say whether Coinbase will keep supporting transfers, offer a conversion or plan a relisting.
