No expiry date
A perpetual contract is similar to a crypto futures contract with one key difference - there is no expiry date. Traders can hold a position open as long as their margin is sufficient.
Custody-free exposure
Perpetuals derive their value from the underlying asset, meaning traders can gain exposure to a crypto asset without having to hold it.
Trade long or short
Traders can long or short perpetual contracts, allowing them to benefit from prices moving both directions.
Cross Collateral
With cross collateral you can use other assets than GUSD, such as BTC, as collateral for your derivative trades.
