Coinbase Unveils Gold and Silver Perpetual Futures with 24/7 Trading Availability
The launch of silver (SILVER-PERP) and gold (GOLD-PERP) perpetual futures permits Coinbase to offer a seamless 24/7 experience for non-US traders. So, the institutional consumers can leverage these products through Coinbase International Exchange to leverage the respective products. Additionally, the retail traders can access them via the Coinbase app and coinbase.com in compatible jurisdictions.
The offering permits traders to use the silver and gold markets continuously, with a staggering 25x maximum leverage. At the same time, the platform also offers institutional-scale risk controls for the traders with these products. Additionally, these products work as perpetual contracts without any expiry, coming with settlement in $USDC.
Keeping this in view, by bringing commodities on-chain, Coinbase reaffirms the ambition to develop an “Everything Exchange” platform, marked by the seamless coexistence of conventional commodities, equities, and digital assets. Additionally, Coinbase’s design decreases the barriers existing in the conventional commodity sector with the provision of continuous trading availability, $USDC settlement, and decreased contract sizing. This takes place following the crypto exchange’s expansion into the sector of stock perpetual futures.
Bridging $14.4T Traditional Commodity Market with Next-Gen Crypto Efficiency
According to Coinbase, silver and gold are still the primary in the worldwide financial landscape with $1.4T and $13T in market values. Additionally, the company’s new perpetual futures for both these precious metals take place after their extraordinary growth. Overall, the perpetual futures of Coinbase advance commodity trading with the merger of the resilience that precious metals deliver and the efficiency of the crypto technology.
