Coinbase Derivatives is set to expand its 24/7 futures trading offerings to include a range of altcoins, starting December 5. The new additions will feature Avalanche (AVAX), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Cardano (ADA), Chainlink (LINK), Dogecoin (DOGE), Hedera (HBAR), Litecoin (LTC), Polkadot (DOT), Shiba Inu (SHIB), and SUI. This expansion is part of Coinbase's strategy to enhance its derivatives market presence following its $2.9 billion acquisition of Deribit. The CFTC-regulated subsidiary will also introduce U.S. perpetual contracts for these altcoins, featuring a five-year term and funding rates aligned with spot markets. This development comes as futures trading volumes on decentralized platforms like Hyperliquid and Lighter continue to rise, indicating growing interest in crypto derivatives.
