Coinbase makes the cut – finally.
The UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) only approves 14% of applications for financial institutions to operate in the country. And until recently, if you visited Coinbase from the UK, you received a standard ‘services restricted’ notice.
Now, the message has changed.
The FCA approved Coinbase’s application, the exchange is now live for UK users, and the crypto market is up 3% from the day before.
Unrelated? Probably. But Coinbase’s approval is another bullish sign for the year ahead, which leads to only one question – what crypto should you buy now?
Here’s our list of five crypto projects to keep your eyes on, on Coinbase or any other exchange you prefer.
Wall Street Pepe ($WEPE) – Best Pepe Ever With $68M Presale
Could Wall Street Pepe become the best pepe?
The latest Pepe-based memecoin continues to smash through its presale goals, passing the $68M on its way to what could easily become a sold-out presale.
$WEPE offers a number of benefits to token holders, including:
- Trading alpha – Exclusive $WEPE market insights and signals
- WEPE army – Private insider group for strategies, alpha-sharing, and the latest $WEPE plays
- Trading rewards – The best trades are eligible for weekly rewards
- Staking – Earn more on your $WEPE with dynamic APY
Above all, WEPE is a community-focused project with premium tools and community benefits.
$WEPE tokens are currently priced at $0.0003665, and the presale is moving fast – learn more about how to buy $WEPE before it ends.

Alchemy Pay ($ACH) – Bridging Fiat and Crypto
On-ramping (fiat to crypto) and the even more complicated off-ramping (crypto to fiat) have been a thorn in the side of crypto adoption for years.
Now Alchemy Pay aims to change that, offering broad support for crypto payments across Web3. Alchemy Pay markets its services to anyone seeking to make their products crypto-friendly, while providing another blockchain – Alchemy Chain – optimized for payments processing.
The $ACH token is the utility token for Alchemy Pay, an ERC-20 token issued on the Ethereum blockchain. $ACH is up nearly 40% in the past month as users look for altcoins with added utility.
Best Wallet Token ($BEST) – One-and-Only Presale Wallet Token
Crypto wallets should be more than just places to store your crypto.
They should be portals to the entire crypto economy – a place to store, buy, sell, trade, and gain insights into the market while providing as many practical features as possible.
And as the name implies, that’s exactly what Best Wallet sets out to achieve. There’s a Best DEX and a Best Card in addition to the wallet. Now, there’s a Best Wallet Token ($BEST).
The $BEST token powers up the entire wallet and Best ecosystem, offering improved staking rewards, lower transaction fees, and governance access.
Last – but not least – $BEST token holders gain exclusive access to certain crypto presales. As a presale wallet, Best Wallet gathers select crypto presales in one location. Users can research and invest in these projects directly within the wallet.
That utility for $BEST has driven the ongoing presale north of the $9M mark, with tokens priced at $0.02385.

Raydium ($RAY) – First Solana AMM
Liquidity markets allow investors to create ‘pools’ of tokens to trade, monetize through staking and yield, and facilitate swaps. It’s a fast-paced and technically complex world, but one that draws millions in investment.
Raydium was the first and most distributed Solana-based automated market maker for liquidity. $RAY, the native Raydium token, has a mining reserve that slowly releases additional $RAY onto the market.
Raydium’s popularity and $RAY’s tokenomics are part of the explanation for why the token is up 465% in the past year.
And it makes $RAY a token worth considering as crypto markets draw more investors.
Catslap ($SLAP) – Slapping Cats and Dropping Free Crypto
A simple Slap-to-Earn game powers potentially big airdrop rewards in the Catslap economy.
Working within Best Wallet, players can connect to the Catslap page and then turn on Slap-to-Earn, participating in a simple but entertaining game of using a feline gif to pummel various well-known characters.
At the end of one of four seasons, rewards are distributed in a Slapdrop (airdrop) to all participants.
It’s not complicated, but an entertaining game and a deflationary token burn mechanism help drive interest in $SLAP.
Learn more about the game – and how to participate – at the Catslap website.
What’s Safer for Your Crypto? Best Wallet or Coinbase UK
Coinbase brings broad name recognition to UK users.
But it might not be the perfect web3 wallet. For that, UK investors should turn to Best Wallet. Best Wallet offers users a multi-chain, non-custodial wallet with biometric security features. Keep your private keys, and keep your crypto with Best Wallet.
As Coinbase Opens to UK Users, Which Tokens Stand to Benefit?
Along with Best Wallet, Coinbase potentially opens the door for additional UK investors to take a closer look at crypto.
What’s the best crypto to buy to take advantage of any surge in interest? These five are worth a closer look. As always, do your own research – this isn’t financial advice, so make sure you know what you’re investing in. Crypto is volatile, and losses are always possible.
But don’t miss your chance, either.
