Binance Expands Futures with 24/7 TradFi Perpetual Contracts Launch

In Brief

• Trade gold and silver perpetuals 24/7 with no expiry dates on Binance Futures platform
• Use leverage up to 50x for flexible portfolio strategies across TradFi and crypto
• Robust pricing model ensures stable trading during off-market hours and volatility

Binance has officially launched TradFi Perpetual Contracts, offering exposure to traditional assets like gold and silver. These contracts trade 24/7 and are settled in USDT, allowing users to speculate on asset prices without owning them.

XAUUSDT (gold) was listed on January 5, while XAGUSDT (silver) went live on January 7 with up to 50x leverage. The contracts support futures copy trading and allow users to post multiple crypto assets as margin.

New Risk Model Enables Off-Hours Trading Stability

To manage off-market hour risks, Binance uses a unique pricing system combining a price index and a mark price mechanism. The price index stays fixed after market hours, while the mark price applies a smooth EWMA-based calculation.

Deviation controls limit the difference between the two, ensuring market stability during 24/7 trading. The system helps prevent unnecessary liquidations caused by sharp price swings during global non-market times.

TradFi Perpetual Contracts offer a simple experience with no expiry dates, and users can hedge or diversify with ease. Binance has also ensured regulatory compliance through its FSRA-regulated platform Nest Exchange and Nest Clearing.

This launch makes Binance the first major global exchange to offer regulated perpetual exposure to traditional assets like silver and gold. Silver has started 2026 strong, rallying to $82 per ounce after a 98% surge in 2025.

Binance aims to bridge traditional finance and digital assets with more asset listings planned in the coming months. The exchange continues to lead the market with innovation, regulatory clarity, and expanded user access to TradFi markets.
