Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong praises the exchange move that adds XRP and Solana to their lasting future in the US.
For context, Coinbase recently added XRP and Solana to its list of permanent style futures support assets. In particular, including XRP and Solana, the total number of assets that permanent futures can be used by four people increases.
The San Francisco-based exchange began offering permanent futures for US customers last month, first supporting Bitcoin and Ethereum. Less than a month after this launch, Coinbase expanded its offering to include XRP and Solana.
In response, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong praised the initiative, describing the latest expansion in the US as “a major advance.”
Great progress in our lasting future. Listed SOL and XRP are now available with BTC and ETH. https://t.co/cjfotnid08

Previous Permanent Futures Support
In particular, the Coinbase Perpetual Futures offering is available in several eligible countries outside the United States.
In October 2023, the exchange granted its customers eligible international jurisdiction access to permanent futures offerings that initially supported four assets, including XRP, Litecoin, Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Despite launching a lasting future in other countries, Coinbase did not introduce similar recruitment in the US due to regulatory concerns. As the US has made great strides in regulating the crypto market, Coinbase launched last month a permanent futures for its US customers, starting with Bitcoin and Ethereum. This exchange expanded the offering to include XRP and Solana.
It is not the first time Coinbase has expanded its derivative support for XRP. Earlier this year, major exchanges launched self-certified XRP futures in the US.
