Coinbase limits spot margin trading to eligible clients in select regions

  • —US spot margin access is limited to eligible contract participants
  • —Lender, custodian and executor depend on the client's jurisdiction
  • —The service is provided by a Coinbase affiliate, not Coinbase Financial Markets
  • —Margin positions can be liquidated without notice and losses may exceed the initial deposit
Why it matters: The regional restrictions curb retail margin demand for Coinbase while reducing the exchange's regulatory exposure.
