NEW YORK (Reuters) - Options on Coinbase Global Inc are set to start trading on Nasdaq options exchanges from Tuesday, less than a week after the cryptocurrency exchange went public, a representative for the exchange said on Monday.
The launch of the equity options on the stock will offer a new way for investors to bet on the fortunes of Coinbase, which recently went public in a high-profile debut on the Nasdaq that briefly valued it at more than $100 billion.
