Coinbase has officially entered the perpetual futures market for US investors, a significant step expanding its trading options. Through Coinbase Financial Markets, US customers can now trade Nano Bitcoin (BTC) and Nano Ethereum (ETH) perpetual futures contracts. This new offering provides leverage up to 10x, allowing traders to amplify their potential gains (and losses). Perpetual futures differ from traditional futures contracts as they don't have an expiration date, enabling traders to maintain positions indefinitely. Coinbase's move into perpetual futures provides US traders with a regulated and accessible platform to participate in this dynamic market. This launch may attract both seasoned and new traders looking to capitalize on the volatility of Bitcoin and Ethereum with increased leverage. Always remember that trading with leverage carries a higher degree of risk. ```
