Coinbase is now allowing some users to trade stocks on the Coinbase platform. According to the platform it’s available to a small subset of US based users and will roll out to all US based users soon. Some accounts might also have the option to apply for stock trading.
The following disclaimers are found on the site:
Access to stocks is currently limited to a subset of U.S. users, with rollout to all U.S. users coming soon. All securities and investments are offered by Coinbase Capital Markets Corp, member FINRA/SIPC. Securities services offered by Coinbase Capital Markets Corp are separate from digital asset services provided by Coinbase Inc., and any affiliates. SIPC does not apply to digital assets or cash held in your Coinbase Inc. account. Additional information about your broker, Coinbase Capital Markets Corp, can be found on FINRA’s BrokerCheck (https://brokercheck.finra.org). Execution, clearing and custody of all securities are provided by APEX Clearing Corporation.
Don’t really see any advantage to using Coinbase for this currently.
