Coinbase Markets is preparing to roll out round-the-clock futures trading for a slate of major altcoins, extending its push into regulated crypto derivatives as demand for non-stop access grows.
Starting Dec. 5, futures tied to AVAX$13,37, BCH$547,33, ADA$0.4151, Chainlink LINK$12,61, DOGE$0.1462, Hedera (HBAR), LTC$83,99, DOT$2,3146, SHIB$0.0₅7995, Stellar (XLM) and SUI will trade 24 hours a day, seven days a week, the exchange said in an announcement on X.

The expansion builds on Coinbase Derivatives’ existing always-on markets for Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana and XRP, which include both standard contracts and nano-sized products aimed at retail.
Alongside the schedule shift, Coinbase is also working to introduce U.S. perpetual-style futures for the same basket of altcoins.
These contracts mimic the structure of crypto-native perpetual swaps — using funding rates to keep prices tethered to spot — but will settle on a five-year expiry instead of the indefinite format used offshore.
The exchange launched 24/7 BTC and ETH futures in May and brought long-dated futures to the U.S. in July, positioning itself as the first major American venue offering those structures under a compliant framework.
Most liquidity in non-BTC/ETH futures still sits offshore, particularly on Binance and Bybit.
A U.S. native alternative with deeper institutional access and clearer rulebooks may gradually redirect order flow, especially if funding markets remain volatile and regulatory pressure continues to shape offshore activity.
