"In evaluating these assets for exploration, we relied as much as possible on the criteria in our published Digital Asset Framework, but found that many of the criteria required communication with external parties to fully evaluate."

I find it interesting they added zcash but not monero

Zcash with only t-addr support is very similar to Bitcoin, on a technical level, and therefore may be easier for Coinbase's eng team to integrate.

They may have decided that deposits of zcash should be sent in the clear, not anonymously. I believe monero is always anonymous, so maybe they didn't want to deal with that?
