Coinbase Launches XRP Futures to Boost Institutional Adoption and Liquidity

The announcement came on April 21, following the company’s earlier filing with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) on April 3. This move marks the official rollout of regulated XRP futures trading on the platform.

The new contracts are cash-settled and will be available on margin, with each one tied to a bundle of 10,000 XRP. This offering closely follows a similar product introduced by Bitnomial in mid-March 2025, signaling a broader push to bring XRP into the institutional trading space.

Coinbase’s entry into XRP futures is expected to increase institutional confidence in the asset, especially as regulatory clarity around XRP continues to improve.
