SGX to launch bitcoin, ether perpetual futures on November 24

Singapore Exchange (SGX) will introduce bitcoin and ether perpetual futures trading on November 24, 2025.

The offering will be accessible to accredited and institutional investors through SGX’s derivatives platform.

Perpetual futures let traders speculate on asset prices without expiry and are known for high leverage and continuous trading.

These instruments are commonly used for hedging, leveraging returns, or speculating on price changes without holding the underlying cryptocoin.

The move comes as cryptocurrencies have seen volatility this year, with bitcoin hitting an all-time high in October before pulling back amid concerns over US economic conditions and interest rate policies.
