Coinbase Launches US Stock Options Trading With First Month Free

Coinbase has launched stock options trading for U.S. users, expanding its platform to include a new trading feature. The service allows users to buy both call and put options, providing more flexibility in managing their investments. To attract users, Coinbase is waiving commissions for the first month.

The company plans to gradually move the options trading feature on-chain, integrating it with its blockchain-based services over time. This move aligns with Coinbase's broader strategy of blending traditional financial instruments with decentralized technologies.
