Coinbase receives UK MiFIB license, will offer derivatives and stock trading to UK users

Odaily Odaily reports that Coinbase has announced it has obtained a UK investment services license (MiFID), and will offer traditional financial product trading services to UK users in the future. Institutional and professional traders can trade perpetual futures for crypto, stocks, and commodities, while retail users will be able to trade stocks on the Coinbase platform for the first time.

Coinbase stated that this license, together with its existing UK e-money license and crypto asset registration, will form a regulatory framework. This represents the largest expansion of the company's product capabilities since entering the UK market and will further advance its "Everything Exchange" strategy. In the future, the platform will gradually support services such as stablecoin payments, savings, lending, and tokenized real-world assets (RWA).
