We have been working tirelessly since our beta launch in May to ensure that Coinbase Prime is the most comprehensive platform for institutional investors. Today, we’re officially launching Coinbase Prime to all institutions. Coinbase Prime combines advanced trading, battle-tested custody, and financing in a single solution. Along the way, we’ve continued to add more venues to our smart router which allows clients to achieve the best available price, more assets to our custody capability, enhanced our post-trade reporting capabilities, and added to our post trade credit financing options.
Manage and build your portfolio with the most trusted brand in crypto
Clients have used our comprehensive platform to execute some of the largest trades in the industry (read more about our work with Meitu, Microstrategy, and One River) because of our stalwart reputation as a publicly traded company, our experience with trading and custodying crypto assets at scale, and because we offer the tools and services institutions need to trade at scale. Furthermore, Coinbase Prime is unique in providing institutional clients access to a wide breadth of assets for trading and custody.
Fully-integrated trading and custody
Our unified solution allows clients to quickly and seamlessly transfer assets between their trading balance (hot) and vault (cold).
The market’s best pricing through our proprietary technology
Our smart order router lets you access the broader crypto market. When you place a trade, we automatically route your order to our network of venues to find you the best all-in price for the trade, including fees. These venues include other crypto exchanges and market makers as well as the Coinbase Exchange — all of which have passed our rigorous due diligence standards.
Tailor your execution strategy
Our execution services team is available across multiple time zones to assess market conditions and offer pre-trade support, providing a seamless transition from ‘high touch’ trades to self-directed electronic trades that use the platform directly.
Our post-trade reporting capabilities complement our agency trading model by providing transparency into order routing. We also show the performance of trades versus a variety of execution benchmarks.
Store your assets with a battle-tested crypto custodian
Maintain peace of mind by working with the most trusted name in crypto. We are a qualified custodian and have been protecting client assets over eight years.
All the tools you need to invest at scale
From working with our execution services team to assess market conditions to crypto-native features like staking and governance, Coinbase Prime has the tools and services institutions need to invest in crypto. We’ll also continue investing in the future of institutional crypto by bringing the best of Coinbase to our clients. In the coming months, our teams are eager to introduce powerful solutions such as real-time market analytics and a mobile app that enables portfolio access and consensus on-the-go.
