Coinbase Exchange unlocks Stable Pair trading

Coinbase’s mission is to increase economic freedom in the world. An open financial system will provide better access to financial services for everyone, and enable greater economic freedom for individuals and businesses. A core part of making this mission successful is continuing to develop a healthy and liquid exchange for crypto assets. Today we are announcing that we have updated our pricing for 9 “Stable Pairs” and will continue to add additional pairs with competitive pricing.

Stable Pairs, or a price quotation between two cryptocurrencies where the price is designed to be pegged to some external reference such as the USD, play an important part of the crypto ecosystem by allowing users to benefit from multiple funding options and instant settlement. The Stable Pair market has grown 10x in trading volume over the last 6 months. Leveraging our fiat rails and our USDC issuer status, we feel confident that introducing Stable Pairs to the market will be an attractive offering to our global user base.

Effective June 1, Coinbase Pro in Stable Pairs are simply 0 bps for maker volumes, 1 bps for taker volumes for all volume tiers.
