Coinbase has announced the launch of its Mag7 + Crypto Equity Index Futures, marking the first U.S.-listed futures product to combine major technology stocks with cryptocurrency ETFs.
Trading is set to begin on 22 September, providing investors with simultaneous exposure to both traditional and digital markets.
The new index features the so-called “Magnificent 7” tech giants: Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, Nvidia, Meta, and Tesla, alongside Coinbase stock and BlackRock’s Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs.

Each of the ten components carries an equal 10% weighting and will be rebalanced quarterly to maintain parity, with MarketVector serving as index administrator.
Futures contracts will be cash-settled monthly, valued at $1 per index point. For example, an index level of $3,000 would translate to a $3,000 notional value per contract.
Coinbase said the product aims to provide thematic exposure to innovation and growth, combining top technology equities with crypto assets, while supporting portfolio diversification and multi-asset risk management.
Coinbase Expands Offerings Amid Slower Trading
The launch comes amid Coinbase’s efforts to revive trading activity following a decline in spot trading volumes and revenue during the second quarter. In Q2 of 2025, Coinbase saw its total transaction revenue fall 27% from the previous quarter to $764.3 million, mainly driven by a 34% drop in consumer trading volume, which fell to $37 billion.
In recent months, the exchange has also developed decentralized exchange (DEX) integrations and explored prediction markets to expand trading opportunities.
Why This Matters
The launch of Coinbase’s Mag7 + Crypto Equity Index Futures highlights a growing trend in the financial industry toward hybrid investment products that bridge traditional equities and digital assets.
