Coinbase seeks CFTC approval to launch single-stock perpetual futures in the US

Coinbase has filed with the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission to list single-stock perpetual futures, aiming to bring a product common in crypto derivatives to individual US equities. The filing was made Friday through Coinbase Derivatives and would let traders gain 24/5 exposure to individual stocks without owning the underlying shares. Unlike standard futures, perpetual futures do not expire. Coinbase said the proposed contracts would extend the structure used in its existing US perpetual futures market to single stocks, though the products are still awaiting regulatory approval and are classified by the CFTC as single-stock futures. The Wall Street Journal reported that Coinbase plans to start with contracts tied to roughly 50 to 60 stocks, including Apple, Microsoft, Tesla and Nvidia. The move follows a Sept. 1 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, where Coinbase Derivatives submitted Form 1-N to register as a national securities exchange for offering security futures. Coinbase already launched stock perpetual futures outside the US in March for eligible traders, covering major US stocks and indexes, while saying at the time that the products were not available to US persons.

Real Stocks, tokenized shares or stock futures: MEXC outlines three ways to access U.S. equities

MEXC has launched a fee-free campaign for three U.S. equity-linked products during its August 2026 “U.S. Stocks Season”: RealStocks, Tokenized Stocks and Stock Futures. The exchange says the products all provide exposure to U.S. equities, but they differ sharply in legal ownership, shareholder rights, trading hours, leverage and use cases. RealStocks are spot U.S. stocks offered through a regulated broker setup and allow users to hold actual shares. Tokenized Stocks are blockchain-based instruments that track listed equities and trade around the clock, but they do not necessarily grant direct legal ownership of the underlying stock. Stock Futures are perpetual contracts tied to stock or stock index prices, designed for directional trading with leverage of up to 200x. MEXC said the comparison is meant to help users match product structure with investment goals, whether that means long-term ownership, flexible on-chain access or leveraged short-term trading. The platform also disclosed that more than 120,000 users opened RealStocks accounts in its first month, while stock and index futures volume rose about 261% month over month in June 2026.

Wall Street Calls the July US Jobs Report “Extremely Ugly”

US nonfarm payrolls fell by 23,000 in July, well below expectations. The unemployment rate still edged down to 4.1%, a move tied to a 0.7 percentage-point drop in the labor force participation rate since the start of the year. Thomas Ryan of Capital Economics said the weakness could prompt Fed officials to reassess labor-market health, while Adam Crisafulli of Vital Knowledge called the report “extremely ugly.” Markets reacted by lifting stock futures and pushing Treasury yields lower, as traders scaled back the odds of a September rate hike to 44% from 55% on Thursday, according to CME tools.

Bitget launches U.S. earnings prediction campaign with a 10,000 USDT prize pool per round

Bitget on July 21 rolled out a U.S. earnings prediction campaign scheduled to run from July 21 to mid-to-late August. During the event, users can earn prediction tickets by completing trading tasks in stock spot products, branded as rToken, or in stock futures products on the platform. Those tickets can then be used to join prediction rounds tied to the direction of selected U.S. stocks around earnings releases. The result of each round will be determined by comparing the closing price on the first trading day after an earnings release with the closing price on the trading day before the release. Bitget said different prediction sessions will open over time based on corporate earnings schedules. The first batch covers names including Tesla, Google and Intel. Each round carries a total prize pool of 10,000 USDT, with the winning and losing sides splitting the pool at a 70% and 30% ratio. The maximum reward for a single user in a single round is 1,000 USDT. More details are available on Bitget’s official platform.
