Coinbase launched spot margin trading for U.S. crypto users, combining spot and derivatives positions in one portfolio and streamlining how margin requirements are managed.

The service provides a single margin health score and unified requirements across the portfolio. The structure is designed to improve capital efficiency and the trading experience by allowing users to manage both types of positions together.

The launch expands Coinbase’s trading tools beyond separate spot and derivatives management. The company’s exchange offers access to a range of digital assets, and the new service is available immediately.
