Coinbase is moving deeper into Solana’s onchain markets with a deal to buy trading platform Vector, the exchange said Friday.Coinbase Expands Solana Trading Stack With Vector DealCoinbase has agreed to acquire Vector, an onchain trading platform built on Solana, in a move to expand its access to Solana’s fast-growing trading ecosystem. The company said Vector’s technology will plug directly into Coinbase’s consumer trading experience and its DEX trading integration, broadening the range of onchain assets customers can trade.The deal, announced Friday, is part of Coinbase’s plan to build what it calls an “everything exchange” for onchain assets. Vector’s Solana-native infrastructure can spot new tokens as soon as they are created or launched on major Solana platforms, which Coinbase says will help it list and route trades across a wider set of markets. According to research firm Messari, Solana decentralized exchanges have already processed more than $1 trillion in trading volume in 2025.Coinbase Acquires Vector on Solana.

The company did not disclose financial terms. The acquisition is expected to close by year-end, subject to customary closing conditions.Coinbase also drew a line between Vector and Tensor, another Solana project linked to the same founders. The exchange said it is only acquiring Vector. The Tensor Foundation will stay independent and continue to oversee the Tensor NFT marketplace and its native token, both of which will remain unaffiliated with Coinbase.What Vector Is and How the Deal Could Change Solana TradingVector is an onchain trading platform built for Solana that scans and indexes new tokens as they appear on the network. Its system tracks launches, liquidity, and early trading activity in real time, giving a structured view of Solana’s token flow based on onchain data.As Coinbase integrates Vector’s infrastructure, its users will gain additional tools for discovering and routing trades in Solana-based assets. Vector’s indexing can support quicker token listing pipelines and more direct connections to Solana decentralized exchanges inside Coinbase’s existing trading interfaces.The move also shows how Coinbase is extending its role in Solana markets beyond spot listings. Solana decentralized exchanges have processed more than $1 trillion in trading volume in 2025, and the Vector acquisition positions Coinbase to connect more of its customers to that activity while it develops its broader “everything exchange” strategy for onchain assets.Coinbase is moving deeper into Solana’s onchain markets with a deal to buy trading platform Vector, the exchange said Friday.Coinbase Expands Solana Trading Stack With Vector DealCoinbase has agreed to acquire Vector, an onchain trading platform built on Solana, in a move to expand its access to Solana’s fast-growing trading ecosystem.
