XRP & NFT Futures Go Viral on Webull (Thanks, Regulators!)

by

There’s a new flavor in town, friends, and it’s called crypto futures. Who knew? Turns out, Webull and Coinbase have gone full Swiss Army knife with XRP, Solana, Litecoin, and Dogecoin derivatives. Because what this nation needs is another crypto toy for retail traders to play with, right? 🚀

Retail Traders Get XRP Futures Access – Finally, the Plot Thickens

Crypto derivatives are moving faster than my Wi-Fi during a Zoom call. On October 30th, Webull (portmanteau for “web” + “ball”) and Coinbase unleashed a flurry of futures contracts on their U.S. platforms. Now you can trade XRP, Solana, Litecoin, and Dogecoin futures with the finesse of someone who forgot how to stop hitting snooze. 🛏️

Anthony Denier, Webull’s CEO (yes, he exists in real life), dropped gold during the announcement: “Our users are always looking for ways to diversify and manage risk in markets that move as quickly as crypto.” Translation: “We’re giving you a ladder to climb off the crypto rollercoaster – enjoy the existential dread!” 😂

But the real winner? Smaller contracts for retail participants. Because who wasn’t waiting to trade Dogecoin futures with a $50 margin? 🦕

Boris Ilyevsky, Coinbase Derivatives’ head, chimed in: “We’re thrilled to see our partners expand access to the crypto economy.” Thrilled? More like “terrified we’ll have to refund all your losses.” But that’s the beauty of regulated chaos, right? 🎲
