Coinbase Launches Crypto-Backed USDC Loans in the UK

Coinbase has launched gold (GOLD-PERP) and silver (SILVER-PERP) perpetual futures for eligible non-U.S. traders, expanding crypto-linked commodities trading. The new contracts are settled in USD Coin and offer up to 25x leverage. Meanwhile, Coinbase Derivatives is working with the CFTC to upgrade its regulated U.S. gold and silver futures markets to 24/7 trading, replacing the traditional 23/5 schedule. The move reflects growing demand for always-open digital trading infrastructure tied to real-world assets.
