Coinbase Futures has filed for certification with the CFTC to list US-regulated futures for SHIB, LINK, AVAX, XLM, DOT.
Until now, Coinbase provided futures trading services for Bitcoin, Litecoin and Dogecoin.
Bitcoin and Litecoin futures began trading on April 1, and Dogecoin futures began trading later that month. Under normal circumstances, Coinbase provides futures transactions only through its global platform, Coinbase International.
However, recently the company has been trying to offer these futures transactions in the USA. Since the CFTC oversees commodities that are not securities in the United States, Coinbase's application is important for the future of these assets.
