Coinbase rolls out 10x spot leverage, but blocks US retail from it
- —Maximum leverage is 10x on selected major assets and 5x on other supported assets
- —Collateral can be posted in more than 15 supported assets and stays on Coinbase
- —US retail clients without ECP status are excluded from the service
- —For US customers, margin lenders will be Coinbase Custody International or Coinbase Credit
Why it matters: Coinbase is expanding margin products into spot markets while restricting US retail access, sharpening competition with offshore exchanges.
