🌍 TradFi and crypto markets: two worlds drawing closer
Stock markets, bonds, gold, and crypto assets increasingly appear in a single financial ecosystem.
Binance is developing its TradFi direction, in particular by offering perpetual contracts for traditional assets.
What does this mean for users?
📊 The ability to track the movement of various markets from a single platform.
⏰ Trading some contracts is available 24/7, even outside the usual operating hours of the underlying market.
⚠️ But a perpetual contract is not the same as buying the asset itself. Margin requirements, funding, and liquidation risk may apply here.
My takeaway: it’s important to understand the difference between price exposure, direct ownership, and leveraged trading.
Financial instruments differ not only in potential profitability, but also in the risk mechanics.
