Gate News message, April 22 — Blockchain.com has launched perpetual futures trading functionality in its self-custodial DeFi wallet, enabling users to open leveraged positions using self-hosted Bitcoin as collateral without transferring funds to an exchange. The feature routes through Hyperliquid, a decentralized derivatives exchange, and supports over 190 crypto markets with up to 40x leverage. Assets remain in the user’s wallet throughout trading, preserving private key control and eliminating reliance on custodial intermediaries.
The wallet also supports direct single-transaction deposits using Bitcoin held in the user’s wallet, eliminating the need for cross-platform conversions or transfers. Blockchain.com plans to expand the offering to include forex, stocks, and commodities in the future.
