The US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has now opened the path for 
Coinbase and other CFTC-registered exchanges to offer regulated access to 
global crypto derivatives markets. Related Reading: Bitcoin Tests Critical

Global Crypto Derivatives On Friday, Coinbase announced that its subsidiary, 
Coinbase Financial Markets (CFM), has become the first US-regulated Futures 
Commission Merchant (FCM) to offer its domestic clients access to global 
crypto derivatives markets. Crypto derivatives account for roughly 80% of 
global crypto trading volume, Coinbase explained, with options, perpetual 
futures, and other instruments driving most of that activity across 
international venues. However, US customers haven’t had regulated access to 
this multi-trillion-dollar market until now. As a result, some institutional 
customers had to establish offshore entities to access these markets and take 
on additional counterparty exposure and infrastructure costs. “Today that 
changes. Guidance issued by the CFTC positions Coinbase Financial Markets as 
the first CFTC-regulated FCM to connect US clients to global crypto options 
and perpetual futures liquidity. US clients will at long last have a fully 
regulated, compliant solution to access all of crypto’s largest markets,” the 
company stated. According to the announcement, US clients can now access 
global crypto perps and options on futures without offshore workarounds 
through Coinbase Financial Markets, including access to Deribit, which holds 
over $31 billion in Bitcoin (BTC) options open interest. Coinbase Financial 
Markets has opened onboarding for institutional clients, offering live access 
to Deribit options. Perpetual futures and additional collateral types are set 
to follow with broader client access, including retail, also on the horizon. 
CFTC Guidance Opens Regulated Path The announcement follows a Friday statement 
from the CFTC confirming the categorization of certain crypto asset perpetuals 
as “foreign futures,” as well as a non-action letter regarding FCM transfers 
of customer crypto assets to foreign brokers as margin. The Market 
Participants Division (MPD) confirmed in its letter that the described 
perpetual contracts “may be categorized as foreign futures as defined in 
Commission Regulation 30.1.” Additionally, the division will not recommend the 
Commission take an enforcement action against CFM for “posting customer-owned 
digital commodities and payment stablecoins with CFM’s foreign broker 
affiliate to margin its foreign futures and foreign options positions on CFM’s 
affiliate foreign board of trade under circumstances where the foreign broker 
has obtained a right of re-use over the customer-owned assets.” Coinbase and 
its CEO, Brian Armstrong, thanked CFTC Chairman Michael Selig and the 
regulatory agency for “recognizing that US customers deserve regulated access 
to these critical markets.” Related Reading: Dogecoin Rally Loading? Analyst

the CFTC revealed it had issued an Order approving Kalshi to list the BTCPERP 
Contract, a perpetual contract referencing the spot price of Bitcoin, as a 
futures contract, making it the company’s first product beyond event 
contracts. Meanwhile, Selig affirmed that today’s action to onshore crypto 
asset perpetuals &#8220;reflects the CFTC’s commitment to fostering responsible 
innovation while ensuring that these novel products are traded on regulated 
exchanges that uphold customer protections and market integrity.” Featured
