Coinbase is expanding its derivatives lineup once again, preparing to launch perpetual futures tied to two emerging projects - Somnia (SOMI) and 0G (0G).

Trading will open on October 9, offering new opportunities for traders seeking exposure to AI and metaverse-linked tokens.

The listings will introduce SOMI-PERP and 0G-PERP contracts, giving market participants the ability to go long or short on price movements. The exchange confirmed that trading will begin once sufficient liquidity is established, with both pairs accessible only in supported regions that meet its compliance standards.

While futures products have traditionally been a favorite among institutional traders for their hedging and leverage potential, Coinbase’s recent additions show an effort to bring that same sophistication to a broader audience. The company said the new instruments are part of a broader push to diversify its derivatives portfolio while staying aligned with global regulatory expectations.

Somnia and 0G represent two very different corners of the digital asset world. Somnia operates within the metaverse economy, powering virtual asset networks that connect creators and users. 0G, by contrast, sits at the intersection of artificial intelligence and blockchain, developing infrastructure for data-intensive AI applications.

A Coinbase spokesperson said the launch aims to boost market depth and strengthen the exchange’s position as a leading platform for crypto derivatives. Industry analysts believe the move could draw greater institutional participation, as interest in perpetual futures continues to accelerate across the sector.

As crypto markets mature, exchanges like Coinbase are doubling down on products that bridge speculative trading and innovation. With the arrival of SOMI and 0G futures, the exchange is signaling that the next wave of growth may come from the convergence of AI, metaverse assets, and advanced derivatives.
