Coinbase, one of the leading crypto exchanges in North America, has taken a major step to expand its derivatives offerings by launching XRP futures contracts.
Coinbase, one of the most prominent cryptocurrency exchanges in North America, has expanded its derivatives offerings with the launch of XRP futures contracts.
The announcement came on April 21, following the company’s earlier filing with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) on April 3. This marks the beginning of regulated XRP futures trading on the exchange.
The new contracts are cash-settled and will be available on margin, with each one encompassing a bundle of 10,000 XRP. This offering closely follows a similar product unveiled by Bitnomial in mid-March 2025, highlighting a broader move to introduce XRP to institutional traders.
Coinbase’s foray into XRP futures is anticipated to heighten institutional trust in the asset, particularly as regulatory clarity surrounding XRP continues to improve.
Recent developments under the Trump administration have rendered the U.S. environment more conducive to crypto adoption, granting XRP a stronger presence in the market.
Moreover, by facilitating futures trading, Coinbase is fostering deeper liquidity for XRP—a critical aspect for attracting substantial market participants and fostering sustained long-term growth.
