Coinbase is launching stock trading, prediction markets, and decentralized trading for Solana tokens as part of its strategy to become an all-in-one financial platform. Users will be able to trade stocks and crypto in a single app, with commission-free trading and plans for tokenized equities in the future.

Coinbase is set to expand its trading app to include tokenized stocks, derivatives, prediction markets, and other assets, aiming to create an "everything exchange" for U.S. users, with plans for international rollout. This move intensifies competition with platforms like Robinhood and aligns with recent pro-crypto regulatory changes in the U.S. as the company seeks to enhance consumer engagement and become a leading financial services app.
