The reception we got on the pre-alpha has been overwhelming. Mark your calendars. Real equity perps with stock collateral and tradfi liquidity are coming and will redefine the category.
A landmark moment for perps.
We welcome last week's CFTC approval of the first U.S.-listed perpetual derivatives contract, alongside the accompanying policy statement, interpretive guidance, and no-action relief.
The approval is expected to:
→ Set a precedent for further product reviews
→ Open the door to onshore activity over time
→ Enable continued industry engagement with regulators
→ Define how perpetual derivatives can operate in U.S. markets
More guidance is expected to follow, with the CFTC signaling continued engagement on perpetual markets.
A constructive step for global derivatives, and a meaningful moment in how perpetual products evolve within U.S. regulatory frameworks.
This was a tough one to write. But I am relieved to get it out. Honoring Nate's legacy means making his vision a reality: making financial services accessible to everyone. The roadmap and purpose is clear, and the team has never been more motivated to win. Onwards.

If you believe this about equity perps (I do), then tradfi level execution & risk management will be the battleground that determines the next winners in this area.
Exciting times ahead.
