Multi-Currency Exchange BTSE to launch Futures TradingHigh liquidity focused fiat-cryptocurrency exchange, BTSE, will add futures offering as of February 2019. The new feature will include linear perpetual futures contracts, multi-currency, multi-asset collateralization and FIX support. DUBAI, United Arab Emirates, Jan. 14, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- In what is now a cryptocurrency bear market, volatility continues to remain high in the derivatives space. While many investors and institutional funds are intent on purchasing and trading cryptocurrencies, the lack of regulation, complex contract design and difficulty of settlement are challenges plaguing the industry. BTSE's futures will take the trading space in a new direction. With these new features, the platform will attract not only cryptocurrency proponents but also professional traders who have previously been hesitant due to the lack of familiarity and ease of transition. Linear Versus Inverse Futures Common to the cryptocurrency space are inverse futures. The non-linear nature of inverse futures results in a complex mechanism of deriving profit-and-loss. Conversely, traditional future contracts embrace a linear design. Every price movement of a contract translates directly into profit-and-loss proportionally. Linear futures make hedging straightforwardfor traders, eliminating the exchange risk exposure from non-linear futures. The clear benefits of linear contracts form BTSE's rationale for its choice.
