Coinbase has launched 24/7 trading for Bitcoin and Ethereum futures, making it the first CFTC-regulated platform to offer round-the-clock access to these contracts for U.S. customers.
The new feature allows retail and institutional users to manage risk by responding to price movements and market events in real time, including on weekends.
Coinbase partnered with CFTC-regulated clearinghouse Nodal Clear to extend futures trading to a 24/7 cycle, marking a significant evolution in market structure.
This move follows Coinbase's announcement of acquiring Dubai-based options trading platform Deribit for $2.9 billion, reflecting the intensifying competition among digital asset exchanges in the crypto derivatives market.
