Binance Expands 24/7 Trading with Launch of Foreign Exchange Perpetual Futures
Binance has launched Foreign Exchange (FX) perpetual futures under its TradFi Perpetual product category, allowing users to trade 24/7 on regulated USDT-settled contracts. The first FX perpetual contract, USDBRLUSDT (USD/Brazil Real), will go live on September 21, 2026 at 14:00 UTC.
Binance's Head of Exchange and Trading, Shunyet Jan, said that FX is one of the world's most foundational markets, traded every moment to hedge and express macro views. With Binance's deep liquidity and global user base, they are well-positioned to extend continuous price discovery into the gaps that traditional FX cannot cover.
Binance has already shown success with its TradFi-linked perps, which have become primary venues for weekend price discovery, leading peer venues by 2.6-3.8 times. The new contracts will feature dual-mode pricing, maintaining fair and orderly markets when traditional FX liquidity thins on weekends.
