Cryptocurrency exchange Binance has announced the launch of its first regulated TradFi Perpetual Contracts, settled in Stablecoin.
The product category intends to give users the ability to access traditional assets through USDT-settled perpetual contracts.
This expansion of the company’s derivatives offerings is said to provide 24/7 access to diversified TradFi market exposure, potentially offering new trading opportunities.
Inaugural TradFi Perpetual Contracts, XAUUSDT and XAGUSDT, correspond to gold and silver, respectively, with Binance reportedly working on broadening its offering with additional trading pairs.
Commenting on the launch, Jeff Li, vice president of product at Binance, says: “The launch of TradFi Perpetual Contracts marks a key step in bridging traditional finance and crypto innovation.”
Under the Abu Dhabi Global Market framework (ADGM), Binance says it is the first digital assets trading platform to obtain a comprehensive set of licenses, with the company’s perpetual contracts offered by Binance entity Nest Exchange, and regulated by the Financial Services Regulatory Authority of ADGM.
