Coinbase in Burokku: your Coinbase account next to everything else
Connect Coinbase with an API key that can only view to see your balances beside your wallets and other exchanges, or with a trading key that can never transfer.
Updated Nov 12, 2026
In short
Burokku reads Coinbase through an API key you make in Coinbase's developer portal, with only View permission. Your balances count in your net worth with your wallets, DeFi and other exchanges, and Burokku turns away any key that can trade or transfer. If you'd like to trade on Coinbase from Burokku, you can make a key that trades but can never transfer, locked to Burokku's fixed IP address.
What Burokku reads
- Your balances, added up with everything else without counting the same coin twice.
- Your history, for profit and loss and your tax report.
Balances refresh every few minutes.
Connect it
Choose Add account, then Coinbase, and follow the steps Burokku shows. In Coinbase's developer portal, create an API key, choose ECDSA or Ed25519, leave View on and Trade and Transfer off, and add Burokku's IP address to its allowlist. Paste the API key ID and Secret. Burokku checks the key can only view before it's stored, sealed in a space that belongs to your account alone, and it never reaches a browser.
Trading on Coinbase
Choose Read and trade when you connect, and turn on Trade but never Transfer. The key must be locked to Burokku's IP address, and your Burokku account needs two-step verification. Every order goes out priced and checked against your limits, and orders over $1,000 ask for your passkey.
What you can do with it
- One total, with your wallets, DeFi and other exchanges, in any of 150 currencies.
- Alerts on prices and your whole portfolio, on Telegram, push or email.
- Recurring buys on Coinbase, within the limits you give the key, once automations are on.

Questions
- Which key type should I choose on Coinbase?
- Either ECDSA or Ed25519 works. Copy the API key ID and the secret Coinbase shows you; the secret is shown only once.
- Can I trade on Coinbase from Burokku everywhere?
- Trading isn't offered in the EU, the UK or Singapore yet. Reading your account works wherever Coinbase does.
