Coinbase Expands Perpetual Futures Offering
Coinbase, one of the prominent names in the cryptocurrency exchange realm, has expanded its perpetual futures offerings by including Polkadot (DOT), XRP, and Dogecoin (DOGE). These perpetual futures contracts are now available on both the Coinbase International Exchange and Coinbase Advanced platforms. The addition of these cryptocurrencies to the futures market underscores the growing interest in diversified investment products within the digital asset sphere.
Milestone for Coinbase's International Exchange
Coinbase's International Exchange recently achieved a significant milestone by surpassing $1 billion in conditional volume traded within 24 hours on their perpetual futures products. This achievement demonstrates the exchange's influence and success in the crypto futures market. It also reveals the diverging interests of traders and expands their participation in using futures contracts for hedging and speculative purposes.

The Global Coinbase Exchange, accessible in select jurisdictions for non-US users, has rapidly grown to become a significant player in the global cryptocurrency market. Situated in Bermuda, Coinbase's expansion and introduction of cryptocurrency futures derivatives signal a long-term global expansion strategy and efforts to democratize access to advanced trading tools for a broader user base. The trading volumes and steady growth in the list of available cryptocurrencies showcase the exchange's leading position among platforms for cryptocurrency investments.
