The aim is for recruits to "leverage this offering to learn about crypto," Pankaj Gupta, VP of engineering and site lead in India, said a blog post Friday.
The exchange is looking to tap the country's "world class community" of engineers, tech builders and entrepreneurs, Gupta wrote.
The company wants to "hire hundreds of world class engineers in the near term" to fill its Indian outpost, which currently has 20 different openings listed.
In March, Coinbase announced its plans to open a hub in Hyderabad, India in the face of the possibility of a ban on crypto in the country.
Even if an outright ban were to be passed into legislation by the Indian government – a possibility that appears to have diminished of late – it is likely that Coinbase's plans there would not be affected if operations center around engineering and software development.

Solana CME Futures Fell Short of BTC and ETH Debuts, but There's a Catch

Mar 18, 2025

When adjusted for asset market capitalization SOL's relative futures volume looks better, K33 Research noted.

Ano ang dapat malaman:

Solana's SOL futures began trading on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) on Monday, with a notional daily volume of $12.3 million and $7.8 million in open interest, significantly lower than the debuts of bitcoin (BTC) and ether (ETH) futures.
Despite the seemingly lackluster debut, when adjusted to market value, SOL's first-day figures are more in line with BTC's and ETH's, according to K33 Research.
Despite the bearish market conditions, the launch of CME SOL futures offers new ways for institutions to manage their exposure to the token, said Joshua Lim of FalconX.
