Derivatives are a cornerstone of global crypto markets, accounting for over 75% of in total trading volume. Yet, much of this activity has taken place internationally, where markets operate 24/7 and offer futures contracts that aren’t confined to traditional expiries. US traders have navigated fixed market hours and expiring contracts, which can create inefficiencies — particularly for those managing crypto exposure. Driven by strong demand from our crypto-native US clients, Coinbase Derivatives, LLC is making regulated futures markets more accessible, transparent, and competitive. Our goal is simple: give traders the tools they need to manage risk and seize opportunities in crypto–on their terms.
While true 24/7 trading is a critical step forward, we know traders want more. That’s why we’re also working to bring to market a first of its kind perpetual-style futures contract with long dated expirations—a product designed to mirror the global crypto derivatives market while meeting US regulatory standards. Trade without time constraints – Perpetual futures allow traders to maintain positions without worrying about contract expirations, enabling long-term strategy execution and risk management.
