Coinbase, the largest publicly traded cryptocurrency<\/a> exchange, said on Thursday it will buy derivatives exchange Deribit<\/a> in a $2.9 billion deal to expand into the crypto options markets.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The move underscores a push by crypto firms to widen their institutional investor base, while also catering to retail traders who are becoming more sophisticated.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The Deribit acquisition gives Coinbase “a foothold in non-U.S. markets, especially Asia and Europe, where leverage trading is more prevalent,” said Bo Pei, analyst at US Tiger Securities.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The cash-and-stock deal will allow Coinbase to offer crypto options to its international clients. Widely used for hedging, options can be a key source of stability as their demand typically holds up during bouts of volatility.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Shares of Coinbase, which have lost nearly 21% of their value in 2025, jumped 5.7%. The company already allows its U.S. and international customers to trade crypto futures.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The deal consists of $700 million in cash and 11 million shares of Coinbase’s Class A common stock, the company said in a\u00a0blog post.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Although still early in the derivatives space, Coinbase reached record market share in its consumer and institutional derivatives volume in the last quarter. It is set to report its first-quarter earnings on Thursday after markets close.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

“Should the U.S. legalize crypto options trading\/perpetuals trading domestically, Coinbase will be swift to offer these services to US clients, bringing significant revenue upside,” Daiwa Securities analyst Steven Nie said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The deal also coincides with U.S. President Donald Trump’s advocacy for digital assets and his pledge to establish America as the global center of cryptocurrency.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Buoyed by the regulatory optimism, several crypto-related firms are clinching deals to increase their user base.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Ripple last month bought buy multi-asset prime broker Hidden Road in a $1.25 billion deal, in one of the largest deals in the crypto company’s history.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

“There will be more consolidations in the crypto market led by U.S. firms,” Pei said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Kraken, another cryptocurrency exchange, had said in March it would buy retail futures trading platform\u00a0NinjaTrader for $1.5 billion.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
