Webull is set to introduce perpetual futures contracts on its platform next month, marking a first for regulated U.S. markets. These derivatives never expire, allowing traders to hold positions indefinitely. The move signals growing interest in crypto-style financial products among retail brokerages.
Webull, known for its commission-free trading model, aims to attract active investors seeking flexible exposure to assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The rollout comes as regulators cautiously explore frameworks for such instruments. While perpetual futures are common in offshore crypto exchanges, their entry into the mainstream U.S. financial system represents a significant shift.
Traders should expect enhanced risk management tools alongside the new offering. Webull has not yet disclosed specific asset pairs or leverage limits.
