Coinbase Becomes First Crypto Platform to Secure US Approval for Cryptocurrency Futures Trading

CryptoCoinbase Becomes First Crypto Platform to Secure US Approval for Cryptocurrency Futures Trading

Coinbase has gained the green light from the National Futures Association (NFA) to provide cryptocurrency futures trading to retail customers in the US. The approval marks a significant milestone, as Coinbase becomes the first crypto-native platform to offer both traditional spot crypto trading and leveraged crypto futures directly. The platform initiated the application process with the NFA nearly two years ago and has since collaborated with regulators to ensure full compliance with regulations and customer protection requirements set by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). This approval is particularly notable amid Coinbase’s ongoing regulatory challenges, including its public dispute with the SEC.
