Coinbase has unveiled plans to launch futures trading for its first equity index product, blending top tech stocks with crypto exposure. The Mag7 + Crypto Equity Index Futures combines Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, Nvidia, Meta, Tesla, and Coinbase shares with BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. Each component will hold an even 10% weighting, giving traders diversified exposure to both traditional and digital markets.
The move follows a decline in Coinbase’s spot trading volumes and revenue in the second quarter. By broadening its U.S. derivatives platform, the exchange is signaling a stronger push to attract users with innovative products that connect the worlds of equities and crypto. The firm also recently launched a DEX integration, expanding access to previously unavailable tokens.
Industry watchers see this as part of a broader trend, where digital asset platforms are increasingly bridging traditional finance with blockchain technology. Coinbase’s latest product aims to entice investors seeking hybrid opportunities between stocks and crypto.
