Introduction
Coinbase is streamlining its trading platform by consolidating advanced trading features into a single, unified experience. This marks the sunset of Coinbase Pro and the rise of Advanced Trade—a more integrated solution for crypto traders. Below, we explore the key benefits, features, and migration process.
Why Advanced Trade Replaces Coinbase Pro
Key Takeaways
- Single Platform Balance: Access staking, borrowing, dapp wallets, and Coinbase Card without transferring funds.
- Global Availability: Advanced Trade is already live on Coinbase.com with Pro-level fees.
- Mobile Integration: Coming soon to the Coinbase app with enhanced tools.
- Pro Sunset Timeline: Coinbase Pro will be phased out later in 2024; users will receive advance notice.
