OG.com Pursues CFTC Approval for Stock-Linked Perpetual Futures

OG.com Markets has filed with the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) to launch cash-settled perpetual futures tied to individual stocks.

The proposed rules would cover single-stock futures that do not expire, trade around the clock, and offer continuous exposure without requiring traders to roll positions into new contract months.

OG.com's CFTC filing outlines a product format widely used in crypto derivatives, where perpetual contracts were pioneered by BitMEX in 2016.

The move comes as other major crypto trading and prediction-market players also seek permission to offer similar stock-linked perps, including Coinbase, Kraken parent Payward through its Bitnomial exchange, and Kalshi.

OG.com recently emerged as an independent platform after being spun out from Crypto.com, with a valuation of $5 billion. CEO Kris Marszalek said the company planned to expand beyond prediction markets into futures and perpetual contracts.
