Coinbase's Push Into Perpetual Futures Faces Challenges From Competition: Compass Point

According to analysts at Compass Point, Coinbase's efforts to offer leverage for digital asset speculation through perpetual futures may result in limited revenue growth due to competition and low switching costs. Regulatory approvals for offshore perps and the potential for leverage restrictions in the U.S. pose challenges for Coinbase's market share and pricing power.
