The schedule discloses that Coinbase may test and roll out fee and spread changes on a variable basis across different geographic regions, asset types, order sizes, and trade types, meaning different users may experience different fees for comparable transactions during testing periods.

This provision establishes that fees and spreads disclosed in the schedule are subject to change through testing processes that may produce different charges for different users based on region, asset, or order characteristics, without specifying notice requirements for individual users subject to tested changes.
The updated fee schedule removes the previously disclosed 1% fee for instant unstaking and replaces it with a variable fee disclosed only at the time you request to unstake. The change also expands instant unstaking fees to apply when converting a pending standard unstake to an instant unstake. Under the revised terms, you will not know the exact fee until you initiate the transaction, which removes the price certainty previously available.
