Exchange Overview

Exchange Overview

What Is Coinbase Exchange?

Coinbase Exchange is a US-based crypto trading and investment platform where users can easily buy, sell, exchange and store cryptocurrencies. The platform is intuitive and beginner-friendly with support for basic transactions, digital wallet, and PayPal withdrawals. For more advanced traders, Coinbase Pro offers more professional trade execution and lower fees. However, in June 2022, the company announced that Coinbase Pro will be phased out and all users will have access to the “Advanced Trade” feature on the main app.

Who Are the Coinbase Exchange Founders?

The project was established by former Airbnb engineer Brian Armstrong and former Goldman Sachs trader Fred Ehrsam in 2012.

Brian Armstrong is CEO of the company. He graduated from Rice University, Texas with a bachelor's degree in economics & computer science, and later received a master's degree in computer science as well. Armstrong began his career as a developer at IBM, worked as a consultant for Deloitte, and then joined Airbnb as a software engineer.

Co-founder of Coinbase Global, Fred Ehrsam attended Duke University in North Carolina and graduated with a bachelor's degree in computer science with a minor in economics. He left Coinbase in 2017, retaining his seat on the board of directors. In 2018, he co-founded cryptocurrency investment firm Paradigm.

When Did Coinbase Exchange Launch?

Coinbase Global, Inc. was established in June 2012 in San Francisco, California, U.S.

Where Is Coinbase Exchange Located?

The company has gained the trust of US regulators, although it doesn’t have a physical head office and all employees work remotely.

Coinbase Exchange Restricted Countries

Coinbase is available in over 100 countries, although some functions may be restricted in certain areas. The entire list can be viewed on the official website.

What Coins Are Supported on Coinbase Exchange?

Over 150 crypto assets can be traded on the online platform, including popular options like BTC, ETH, AVAX, SOL, ADA, USDC, DOGE, MATIC and USDT.

How Much Are Coinbase Exchange Fees?

Exchange fees are based on a maker-taker model and range from 0.00% to 0.40% for maker fees, and 0.05% to 0.60% for taker fees, depending on the total USD trailing 30-day trading volume. “Stable Pairs,” or trading pairs of stablecoins have fixed maker fee of 0.00% and taker fee of 0.001%.

Fiat deposit fees ranges from free (ACH), $10 USD (Wire), €0.15 EUR (SEPA) and free (SWIFT) and withdrawal fees vary from free (ACH), $25 USD (Wire), €0.15 EUR (SEPA) and £1 GBP (SWIFT).

Is It Possible To Use Leverage or Margin Trading on Coinbase Exchange?

In February 2020, it was announced that Coinbase Pro customers can access up to 3X leverage on USD-quoted books. But in November 2020, margin trading was disabled due to changes in the regulatory environment.

WikiBit Tokenized U.S. Stocks Special Report 6: The Crypto Industry Is Gearing Up! Exchanges, Blockchains, Stablecoins and Oracles — Who Will Be the Biggest Winner?

If the biggest wealth opportunities in the cryptocurrency industry over the past decade came from Bitcoin, Ethereum, and DeFi, a new sector that could reshape the industrys competitive landscape is now emerging: Tokenized Stocks.  Imagine a future in which investors no longer need to open accounts with traditional brokerage firms to gain exposure to companies such as Apple, NVIDIA, and Tesla. Instead, they could hold tokenized stock exposure directly in their digital wallets, purchase tokenized shares using USDC, trade on-chain 24/7, and even use these assets as collateral for lending, portfolio investments, and other financial applications.  As trillions of dollars in traditional financial assets begin migrating to blockchain networks, the key question is: Who will collect transaction fees, control user access, capture liquidity, and ultimately turn industry growth into investment returns?  Centralized exchanges such as Coinbase and Kraken, tokenization issuers such as Ondo and Securitize, blockchains such as Ethereum and Solana, oracle providers such as Chainlink, stablecoin issuers such as Circle and Tether, as well as wallets and trading aggregators, are all competing for a potentially enormous market.  However, there is an investment principle that is easy to overlook: Industry growth does not necessarily translate into project growth, and project growth does not necessarily

WikiBit Exchange Runaway Risk Rankings – Episode 56: BloFin: Blacklisted by France's AMF, Delisted by India's FIU, and Ranked Last in On-Chain Reserves — How Long Can BloFin's “Polished Product” Hold Up?

Introduction: A Derivatives Exchange with a Polished Product but a Fragile Foundation  In our previous 55 episodes, we investigated a wide range of exchanges, from HashKey to Coinbase. For Episode 56, were turning our attention to a rather specialized player: BloFin.  When it comes to product design, BloFin does have some notable strengths. Founded in 2019 by Matt Hu, the founder of TokenInsight, the exchange officially launched in January 2023. Its core business focuses on perpetual futures and copy trading, offering 508 perpetual trading pairs, leverage of up to 150x, maker/taker futures fees of 0.02%/0.06%, and copy trading with a minimum starting amount of just 100 USDT.  Its copy trading system offers three position modes, while its trader leaderboard additionally discloses risk-adjusted performance metrics such as the Sharpe, Sortino, and Calmar ratios — features that are relatively uncommon among comparable platforms.  BloFin also claims to provide 1:1 asset reserves, Merkle Tree-based Proof of Reserves (PoR), independent monitoring by Nansen, and custody services through Fireblocks.  However, the picture looks very different on the regulatory and financial fronts.  BloFin is absent from ESMAs MiCA CASP register. Frances financial regulator, the Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF), has included it on its cryptocurrency blacklist since December 2024. On September 9,

WikiBit Exchange Runaway Risk Rankings – Episode 55: Coinbase — America’s Most Transparent Licensed Crypto Giant, So Why Could Your $1.3 Million Be Frozen for 16 Hours?

Introduction: An Exchange with One of the Lowest Runaway Risks, Yet Some of the Most Real-World Friction for Users  The first 54 episodes examined a series of exchanges, from HashKey to OKX. For Episode 55, were turning our attention to one of the most distinctive players in the entire series when it comes to regulatory compliance: Coinbase.  When it comes to institutional security, Coinbase is arguably at the top of the crypto industry. It is a Nasdaq-listed company (COIN), a publicly traded entity subject to SEC oversight, and its quarterly 10-Q and annual 10-K financial reports are audited by Deloitte in accordance with PCAOB standards.  The platform holds $377 billion in assets, representing 12.5% of the global cryptocurrency market capitalization. In Q3 2026, it reported net income of $719 million, maintained positive adjusted EBITDA for 15 consecutive quarters, and saw its trading volume market share reach 10.7%, marking its fourth consecutive quarterly increase.  From the perspective of whether an exchange might disappear with customers funds, Coinbase is arguably one of the lowest-risk platforms in this entire series.  But theres another side to the story.  In August 2026, a user claimed that after depositing $1.3 million in USDC, their account was restricted for 16 hours, resulting in
