Coinbase’s Latest: Prediction Markets And Stock Trading Added To Platform
Coinbase is expanding its platform to become a comprehensive financial application by adding stock trading, advanced trading tools, and prediction markets through a partnership with Kalshi. CEO Brian Armstrong stated that while only 1% of users trade prediction markets as an asset class, 99% use them for insights, similar to traditional media. The company is also launching "Coinbase Tokenize," an institutional-grade infrastructure to support the tokenization of real-world assets (RWAs), with the ultimate goal of facilitating global access to tokenized equities. Armstrong believes all major asset classes, including equities and real estate, will transition to blockchain systems. Additionally, Coinbase will offer custom stablecoins for businesses and expand its API services for institutional clients.
