- This is a huge win for Coinbase and the cryptocurrency ecosystem as a whole.
- Coinbase Financial Markets is now a licensed Futures Commission Merchant (FCM).
The National Futures Association of the US CFTC has granted Coinbase Financial Markets, a futures commission merchant registered with the CFTC, approval to provide crypto futures trading to qualified consumers in the US. Despite a lawsuit by the US SEC, this is a huge win for Coinbase and the cryptocurrency ecosystem as a whole.
Coinbase Financial Markets is now a licensed Futures Commission Merchant (FCM) according to the National Futures Association. According to an official post published on August 16, this would enable Coinbase to provide cryptocurrency futures trading directly to its clients in the United States.
Pushing Crypto Adoption
In September of 2021, Coinbase applied to the NFA to get registered as an FCM. With the help of the CFTC, the cryptocurrency exchange has implemented all of the necessary measures to ensure the safety of its users. The firm intends to promote economic liberty by working with authorities to get product approvals. It also helps in making the safest and most reliable goods and services possible.
Coinbase Financial Markets now provides access to regulated derivatives products for clients in the United States. Now, Coinbase is the first cryptocurrency exchange to provide both spot trading and regulated leveraged crypto futures. It will make the crypto market more accessible in the United States without putting users at risk.
As of last week, Coinbase customers in Canada may make use of the Interac e-Transfers thanks to the company’s cooperation with Peoples Trust Company. Since it is Coinbase’s second-most crypto-aware foreign market, the exchange has big hopes to grow there as well.
