On September 12, 2026, Coinbase rolled out a new feature called Pulse Mode shortly after rebranding its Base App to Coinbase Wallet. The company said the update is designed to draw more users into the Coinbase ecosystem while expanding its services as a leading global cryptocurrency exchange.
Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong showcased the new feature in a post on X, encouraging users to download the app and explore the updated trading experience. According to Armstrong, Pulse Mode offers a simpler and more engaging way to trade perpetual futures directly through the mobile app.
Team members described Pulse Mode as a design built to streamline perpetual trading for mobile users by simplifying the interface and making execution more accessible. The feature also introduces a more dynamic and visually engaging interface intended to attract active traders.
The new mode is available directly within the Coinbase Wallet mobile application. Users can access supported perpetual markets without leaving the wallet environment, allowing them to explore multiple trading options from a single interface.
