Coinbase now allows U.​S.​ users (excluding New York) to borrow up to $1 million in liquidity using their cbETH (Coinbase-wrapped staked ETH) as collateral.​

Key features:

  • Access funds without unstaking or selling your staked ETH
  • Maintain exposure to staking rewards while accessing liquidity
  • Available immediately for eligible U.​S.​ users

This service addresses a common challenge for ETH stakers who need capital but don't want to forfeit their staking positions or rewards.​ Users can now leverage their staked assets for liquidity needs while continuing to earn staking yields.​

The offering comes as staked ETH in liquidity pools has grown significantly, reaching $1 billion in value as of August 2025.​
