Coinbase is Acquiring the Solana-Based DEX Vector.

Coinbase is acquiring Vector, an online trading platform based on Solana. With this acquisition, the Vector team will be integrated into Coinbase's consumer trading unit. At the same time, plans are underway to shut down independent applications.

This deal marks Coinbase's ninth acquisition as of 2025. Previous purchases include significant amounts such as $375 million for Echo and $2.9 billion for Deribit.

The addition of Vector comes as this year’s Solana DEX trading volume exceeds $1 trillion. This situation supports Coinbase's goal of creating an "all-in-one exchange" with faster token access and improved trading capabilities.
