Coinbase, through its subsidiary Coinbase Financial Markets (CFM), has officially launched regulated derivatives contracts for eligible Canadian traders, becoming the first major crypto platform to offer native crypto futures in Canada. The product lineup includes 23 perpetual and term futures on Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and others, plus five commodity futures (gold, silver, oil) and the COIN50 index, all with up to 10x leverage. All contracts are provided by CFTC-registered futures commission merchant CFM, with limited-time fees as low as 0.02% per trade plus $0.11 per contract. Previously, Canadian investors lacked access to regulated crypto derivatives and relied on off-shore or unregulated platforms.
Coinbase Introduces Regulated Crypto Derivatives in Canada
Coinbase says in an official blog post that it has begun offering regulated derivatives contracts to eligible Canadian traders through its subsidiary, Coinbase Financial Markets (CFM). That puts Coinbase in first place among major crypto platforms to offer native crypto futures in Canada.
Product Details and Fees
The lineup covers 23 perpetual and term futures tied to Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), and other digital assets. There’s more: five commodity futures—gold, silver, and oil—along with the COIN50 index futures. Every contract offers up to 10x leverage and comes through CFM, a CFTC-registered futures commission merchant. For a limited time, fees start as low as 0.02% per trade, plus $0.11 per contract.
Market Context
Before this, Canadian investors had few ways to access regulated crypto derivatives and often leaned on offshore or unregulated platforms. So Coinbase is stepping into that hole with a compliant way to trade.
