Coinbase News: Launching 24/7 Bitcoin and Ethereum Futures Trading for US Clients

Coinbase, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges globally, has announced a groundbreaking development for its US-based clients. Here’s a closer look at what this means for traders and the crypto market.

Coinbase to Launch 24/7 Bitcoin, Ethereum Futures for US Customers

Crypto exchange giant Coinbase will soon offer Bitcoin and Ethereum 24/7 futures trading via its Coinbase Derivatives platform—a first for U.S. clients. The San-Francisco-based firm said Monday that the platform would make the service available in the coming weeks but did not specify an exact date. Coinbase added that 24/7 trading of such contracts would give traders ’uninterrupted access to manage risk and seize opportunities—just like crypto.’ Built in response to strong demand from crypto-native traders, these innovations make US markets more accessible, competitive and aligned with global standards.

Trump Plans to Sign Executive Order Ending Biden’s Crypto Banking Restrictions

US President Donald Trump is preparing to sign a new executive order that will reverse former President Joe Biden’s anti-crypto stance. Specifically, the order is expected to rollback policies linked to ’Operation Chokepoint 2.0’, a term coined by Castle Island Ventures partner Nic Carter referring to Biden’s administration’s effort to limit banking access for crypto firms. Coinbase argues that the FDIC’s warning letters to banks signal a deliberate government campaign to restrict the crypto sector’s access to banking services.
