We are excited to announce that Horizon Futures trading is officially LIVE on the BNB Chain mainnet as of today, June 17th! Following the successful deployment of our V2 upgrade and having completed several comprehensive audits, we’re delighted to bring you this major milestone. Thanks to our community’s invaluable feedback and rigorous testing during the recent trading competition on the testnet, we’ve ensured a seamless and secure launch.

The Futures Mainnet launch lays the groundwork for us to enhance our product and provide traders, stakers, and DeFi users with a unique and powerful experience on the Horizon Protocol. This will also help us grow our user base and add a new business model to the protocol.

Initially launching with BTC, ETH, and BNB markets, Horizon Futures offers low fees and 50x leverage trading. More markets will be added iteratively through future updates. Tell us which Futures markets you’d like to see next on our social media channels!
