[Coinbase and Deribit Plan to Merge on September 9, Integrating Spot, Perpetual, Options, and Futures into a Unified Trading System] Odaily Planet Daily News: Adam from Greeks.live Research Institute posted on the X platform, stating that Deribit has been conducting updates more than once a week recently. Currently, spot liquidity has been merged into Coinbase, and most reserve assets have been custodied with Coinbase. These arrangements are aimed at preparing for the merger on September 9. Adam noted that Coinbase might be more noteworthy than many expect, as this merger is not merely a simple brand integration. Coinbase's spot trading, global user base, and institutional system will be integrated with Deribit's options, derivatives liquidity, and trading infrastructure. For traders, where previously spot, perpetual, and options trading were scattered across different platforms, the merger will consolidate spot, perpetual, options, and futures trading into a unified trading system on Coinbase. The derivatives infrastructure will adopt a next-generation matching engine and further consolidate previously fragmented liquidity.
