Ripple Prime’s institutional clients in the regulated US market can now trade the full suite of crypto futures listed on Coinbase Derivatives, including Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, and XRP. The expansion signals sustained institutional demand for regulated crypto derivatives, providing access within a CFTC-supervised market. Ripple says its Ripple Prime platform processed more than $3 trillion in trading volume in 2025, and the new service is built on Hidden Road, the futures commission merchant and prime broker Ripple acquired for $1.25 billion last year.
The offering leverages Hidden Road and expands Ripple’s ecosystem, which also includes the Rail acquisition for $200 million and investments in GTreasury and a crypto wallet infrastructure startup. Coinbase lists the Solana and XRP futures in standard and mini sizes, with contracts clearing through the U.S. payments provider Nodal Clear. The portfolio includes nano Bitcoin and nano Ether futures, broadening the regulated futures lineup for institutions. Crypto derivatives have emerged as one of the fastest-growing segments in the digital asset markets, and this move highlights ongoing demand for regulated, cleared products in the United States.
