Coinbase plans to relaunch Coinbase Pro by the end of 2026 after completing its Deribit integration. The combined system now operates as Coinbase Global Exchange, linking spot and derivatives services through one trading structure.

Coinbase Builds Global Derivatives Access

Coinbase Financial Markets will soon connect eligible U.S. clients to global crypto derivatives liquidity. Institutional clients will access Deribit options and perpetual futures through Coinbase Prime, following Coinbase’s recent CFTC clearing approval.

Eligible traders outside the United States will receive options access in the coming weeks. Coinbase said CFTC guidance allows its futures commission merchant to connect U.S. clients with global derivatives markets.

Deribit Integration Expands Product Range

Coinbase bought Deribit for about $2.9 billion in August 2025. Deribit held more than $30 billion in Bitcoin options open interest at the end of September and processed more than $1 trillion in trading volume during 2025.

The integration arrives as the CFTC advances new rules for leveraged and margined crypto trading. Coinbase said Deribit-powered options, spot margin trading and unified portfolios will start rolling out over the coming weeks for eligible users.

Coinbase Pro Returns for Active Traders

Coinbase Pro will return with faster order routing, updated execution systems and tools for active traders. The company closed the original platform in 2022 and moved advanced trading features into its main app before completing the shift to Coinbase Advanced in November 2023.

The rebuilt service will sit alongside spot, futures, perpetuals and options. Coinbase also plans spot margin trading with leverage of up to 10 times on selected major assets and up to five times on other supported assets.

Trading Changes Extend Across Coinbase

Coinbase has introduced a new matching engine and shortened its onboarding process. It changed Coinbase Advanced fee tiers, with qualifying volume now starting at $10,000 and counting both spot and derivatives activity.

The expansion comes as U.S. government Bitcoin recently moved to Coinbase Prime in transactions tied to seized assets. Coinbase Prime also serves institutional clients seeking custody, financing and staking alongside trading services.

Coinbase said U.S. retail traders are expected to receive derivatives access later this year. Institutional onboarding is open, with options trading scheduled to begin in the coming weeks. The rollout will extend access in stages across supported markets.
