The expansion builds on Coinbase Derivatives’ existing always-on markets for Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana and XRP, which include both standard contracts and nano-sized products aimed at retail.
Alongside the schedule shift, Coinbase is also working to introduce US perpetual-style futures for the same basket of altcoins.
These contracts mimic the structure of crypto-native perpetual swaps — using funding rates to keep prices tethered to spot — but will settle on a five-year expiration instead of the indefinite format used offshore.
The exchange launched 24/7 BTC and ETH futures in May and brought long-dated futures to the US in July, positioning itself as the first major American venue offering those structures under a compliant framework.
Most liquidity in non-BTC/ETH futures still sits offshore, particularly on Binance and Bybit.
A US native alternative with deeper institutional access and clearer rulebooks may gradually redirect order flow, especially if funding markets remain volatile and regulatory pressure continues to shape offshore activity.
