Coinbase now offers global traders continuous, leveraged exposure to major US stocks through perpetual futures, extending beyond crypto into traditional assets. The product includes Apple, NVIDIA, Tesla, Microsoft, Amazon, Alphabet, and Meta, along with ETFs. Contracts settle in USD Coin and offer up to 10x leverage on single stocks and 20x on ETFs. Access is available via Coinbase’s advanced trading interface and APIs, supporting both retail and institutional traders in a 24/7 market environment. This move targets demand for round-the-clock equity trading, especially in regions with limited access to US markets.
The company has been preparing for this expansion through regulatory milestones, including crypto derivatives in the US and Europe under MiFID II licensing.
