Interactive Brokers has introduced Coinbase-issued nano Bitcoin and Ether futures contracts, broadening its crypto derivatives offering and giving eligible clients greater access to regulated cryptocurrency exposure directly through its trading platform. These new futures products are designed to make it easier for traders to manage digital-asset risk and participate in crypto markets alongside other instruments.
The newly launched nano futures representing 0.01 Bitcoin and 0.10 Ether are offered in both monthly expiration and perpetual-style formats, allowing investors to choose between traditional contract durations and long-dated exposure that closely tracks spot prices. Perpetual-style futures reduce the frequency of rollover and provide flexibility for active traders.
By adding these Coinbase Derivatives-based contracts to its platform, Interactive Brokers enables customers to access regulated crypto futures with lower capital requirements and more precise position sizing. The products trade nearly around the clock, with only a short weekly maintenance window, giving clients 24/7 market access typical of cryptocurrency markets.
Milan Galik, CEO of Interactive Brokers, highlights that perpetual-style crypto futures are increasingly popular because they offer long-dated exposure and flexibility, especially when combined with smaller contract sizes that reduce risk and resource requirements for traders. Coinbase Institutional's leadership notes the partnership's goal is to expand access to regulated crypto derivatives, lowering barriers for investors who want to engage with digital assets responsibly.
These new futures join Interactive Brokers' unified platform, where clients can trade more than 170 markets globally including equities, options, traditional futures and now regulated crypto derivatives all from a single account.
