The functionality of the new product suggests the possibility of creating long and short positions.

“Very soon, Binance will present a platform for trading crypto futures. There is no exact date yet. Access to the test version of the platform will appear in a few weeks. ”
As confirmation, the creator of Binance presented a real screenshot of the future platform. It is known that initially the system will provide access to futures on BTC, leverage – 1:20.

Recall that last month the exchange introduced an updated version of the platform, in which a new feature appeared, namely access to margin trading. On June 24, the first liquidation of the marginal position took place. Changpeng Zhao drew the attention of the crypto community to the fact that the company will continue to develop blockchain technology, despite what mood prevails in the market.
