Coinbase Wallet Launches Pulse Mode for Mobile Perpetual Futures Trading

Coinbase has launched Pulse Mode, a simplified mobile interface for perpetual futures trading, shortly after renaming its Base App to Coinbase Wallet.

The feature gives eligible users a streamlined route to leveraged trading directly inside the self-custodial wallet, without leaving the application to use a separate exchange or platform.

It marks one of the most direct consumer-facing moves yet in the company’s broader push into derivatives. What Pulse Mode does Pulse Mode presents a simplified interface for opening and managing leveraged long and short positions, commonly called perps.

In perpetual futures, traders take a position on an asset’s price without an expiry date, using leverage to amplify exposure in either direction.
