SGX Derivatives to launch Bitcoin and Ethereum perpetual futures

The contracts feature a continuous, no-expiry structure.

The Singapore Exchange (SGX) Derivatives is set to launch Bitcoin and Ethereum perpetual futures on 24 November.

The contracts feature a continuous, no-expiry structure and will be cleared and margined under SGX’s listed derivatives framework.

Perpetual futures account for over $243.7b (US$187b) in daily average global volumes, with Asia as a major market. However, most trading and settlement currently occur on offshore platforms, the division said.

Meanwhile, the contracts will enable institutional, accredited, and expert investors to trade these products on-exchange.

US$1 = $1.30

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
