The move represents Coinbase’s latest push to diversify its derivatives platform beyond single-asset offerings, tapping growing institutional demand for instruments that bridge traditional finance and digital assets.
Diversified Exposure in a Single Contract
The new futures contract tracks the Mag7 + Crypto Equity Index, an equal-weighted benchmark composed of 10 components: the so-called “Magnificent 7” tech stocks Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, Nvidia, Meta, and Tesla, plus Coinbase’s own stock and two leading crypto ETFs, the iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) and iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA).
Each component carries a 10% weighting, with the index rebalanced quarterly to reflect market shifts. Coinbase said the structure offers thematic exposure to innovation and blockchain growth, enabling investors to diversify across traditionally separate asset classes while managing multi-asset risks in one instrument.
“By combining transformative technologies and blockchain-native assets, we’re creating a capital-efficient futures product that broadens access and hedging opportunities,”
said Boris Ilyevsky, head of Coinbase Derivatives.
Cash-Settled Contracts Target Institutional Demand
The Mag7 + Crypto Equity Index Futures will be monthly, cash-settled contracts, each representing $1 times the index level. At an example index price of $3,000, each contract would carry a notional value of $3,000.
Coinbase said the product is initially aimed at institutional players but will eventually expand to retail investors through partner platforms. MarketVector, a global index provider, will administer the benchmark.
The announcement follows Coinbase’s completed acquisition of Deribit, the world’s top crypto options exchange. Deribit processed more than $1 trillion in trades last year and maintains roughly $60 billion in open interest, a move that positions Coinbase to play a far larger role in global derivatives markets.
