Coinbase has started offering institutional and retail traders the option to place bets on yet-unlaunched digital assets. The feature, called ‘pre-launch markets,’ is an innovative addition by the exchange’s international division.

Introduction to Coinbase Pre-launch Trading Feature

Pre-listing markets enable traders to place bets on the post-listing token prices, which essentially means selling or buying perpetual futures contracts of tokens not listed on the spot exchanges.

Pre-launch markets are available via the Coinbase International Exchange to some of its institutional users. Coinbase Advanced is available for eligible retail traders, although this falls outside the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom.

Coinbase is elated about the announcement of its support for pre-launch markets on Coinbase International Exchange and Coinbase Advanced. The company aims to empower traders to participate in price discovery for projects yet to be launched within one trusted and secure platform.
