Kalshi Brings Regulated BNB Futures to US Traders with Up to 4.5x Leverage
Kalshi has launched regulated perpetual futures contracts for BNB (Binance Coin) on its platform, allowing eligible US investors to trade BNB as a regulated derivative. This move is part of Kalshi's broader expansion, which includes altcoins like Cardano and Aave, bringing the total number of altcoin perpetual futures contracts offered by Kalshi to 17.
The new BNB perpetual futures contracts offer up to 4.5x leverage and are USD-margined with no expiration. This differentiates them from offshore products, which are not fully regulated. The introduction of these contracts provides US traders with a safer way to hedge and trade crypto derivatives, adding legitimacy to BNB amid regulatory scrutiny of Binance.
