Coinbase Canada's new CEO, Eric Richmond, says permanent rules, rather than temporary exemptions, are needed as the company pushes to expand into derivatives, tokenized assets and decentralized finance.
- Coinbase’s new Canadian CEO says the exchange wants to offer Canadians the same advanced crypto products available in the U.S., including derivatives, DeFi services and tokenized assets.
- Eric Richmond argues that Canada must move beyond case-by-case exemptions toward a bespoke, harmonized national framework for digital assets if it hopes to support more sophisticated products.
- While Canada was an early mover on spot crypto ETFs and has passed a Stablecoin Act, slower, more fragmented guidance compared with the U.S. is delaying access to offerings such as higher-yield lending and broader futures trading for Canadian retail investors.
