Coinbase has launched regulated crypto futures trading across 26 European countries through its Coinbase Advanced platform as it expands its derivatives business in the region.
The offering allows traders in markets including Germany, France and the Netherlands to access cash-settled futures products covering bitcoin, ether and crypto-linked equity indices.
The company said the new derivatives service is operated under its Markets in Financial Instruments Directive regulated entity to ensure compliance with European financial rules.
The product suite includes perpetual-style contracts with five-year expiries, monthly and quarterly dated futures, and equity-linked products such as the Mag7 + Crypto Equity Index Futures.
Traders will be able to access leverage of up to 10 times on major contracts including bitcoin and ether futures.
The launch provides a regulated alternative to offshore derivatives exchanges that have historically dominated crypto futures trading in Europe.
Coinbase said the move is part of a broader strategy to build a one-stop trading platform offering both spot and derivatives products as regulatory clarity improves across the European digital asset market.
At the time of reporting, Bitcoin price was $69,959.55.
