An exciting development has unfolded in the crypto market. Coinbase has officially completed its acquisition of Deribit, the world’s leading crypto options exchange. This move positions Coinbase as the most comprehensive global crypto derivatives platform.
Record Volumes on Deribit
Deribit leads the crypto options market in both trading volume and open interest. The platform currently holds approximately $59 billion in open interest. Over the past year, Deribit facilitated over $1 trillion in total trading, reaching a record $185 billion in monthly volume in July 2025.
Coinbase Expands Derivatives Offering
With this acquisition, Coinbase moves closer to offering a full spectrum of trading products—spot, futures, perpetuals, and options—on a single platform. Expanding the product range also enables greater global participation and deeper liquidity.
Perfect Timing for the Market
Coming at a time of rapidly growing institutional interest in the crypto options market, this deal positions Coinbase to lead the next wave of innovation. Deribit’s fast, capital-efficient, and battle-tested infrastructure serves as a strong complement to Coinbase’s expanding derivatives business.
