Quick takeaway from the Coinbase livestream: they’re clearly aiming to be a full-stack financial platform, not just an exchange.
On the investment side, it’s stocks with crypto, equity perps, prediction markets, US-friendly derivatives, DEX access to millions of assets (including Solana), and a new token sales platform that already kicked off with $MON.
On services, it’s borrow against BTC/ETH at scale, a card with BTC rewards, AI-powered financial guidance, and real business tooling for payouts and invoicing.
And for devs, the rails are wide open: custody, payments, trading, stablecoin APIs, x402, and even custom branded stablecoins backed by USDC.
This feels less like feature creep and more like Coinbase laying down an operating system for onchain finance.
