## Custody and collateral

**Secure, institutional-grade custody**

**Fast 24/7 access**  
Most transfers process within 15 minutes, and nearly all are processed within 2 hours.

**Broad asset coverage**

## Financing

**Trade finance**  
Bridge between traditional and digital asset markets with financing that lets you trade without full pre-funding, then settle post-trade on agreed terms.

**Agency lending for yield**  
Earn income on your digital assets through an agency lending program managed by Coinbase’s agency lending team. No need to build your own lending desk. Eligible customers* can lend into a program that spans 85+ crypto assets, with margin calls and collateral management handled by Coinbase.

## Staking

**Staking from custody**  
Offer staking on over a dozen assets from the same custody environment, so assets do not need to be moved to less secure venues.

**Rewards with institutional controls**  
Allow customers to generate rewards on strategic holdings while maintaining institutional policies and oversight.

## Trading tools for onchain builders

**High performance onchain swaps**  
Execute token-to-token swaps on Ethereum and Base with sub-500ms latency, aggregator-powered routing across major DEX liquidity, and with the ability to add slippage and gas optimization.

**Built for Bots, Agents, and DeFi Apps**  
Power agentic systems, DeFi vaults, and trading bots using CDP wallets or your own wallet setup. The API supports both EOAs and Smart Accounts, offers optional gas sponsorship, and returns full swap metadata for compliance and backtesting.
