Blockchain.com Adds Self-Custodied Perpetual Futures to Its DeFi Wallet

A mobile-first integration with Hyperliquid lets users trade with Bitcoin collateral without leaving the wallet.

Overview

  • Blockchain.com, which announced the feature Tuesday, now lets DeFi wallet users trade perpetual futures on mobile, with web access listed as coming soon.
  • Perpetual futures are open-ended contracts that track an asset’s price without an expiry date, allowing continuous leveraged positions.
  • Orders are executed on Hyperliquid’s onchain venue, so users keep their private keys and fund positions directly with Bitcoin held in the wallet.
  • The rollout offers more than 190 tradable markets with up to 40x leverage and includes real-time pricing and built-in risk tools aimed at new and advanced traders.
  • DefiLlama data shows Hyperliquid handling about $6 billion in daily perp volume and $191 billion over 30 days, and its HIP 3 framework enables markets tied to assets like the S&P 500 and oil.
