Singapore Exchange Drops a Crypto Bomb: Bitcoin Perpetual Futures Are Coming this 2025!
Singapore is about to shake things up! The Singapore Exchange (SGX) announced on March 10, 2025, that it’s launching regulated Bitcoin perpetual futures in Q3 2025, making it Asia’s first major bourse to dive into this high octane game. These contracts, tied to BTC’s spot price with no expiry, are a trader’s dream, offering leverage, flexibility, and a chance to ride Bitcoin’s wild waves, all under Singapore’s rock solid regulatory umbrella.
SGX isn’t messing around. With Asia’s crypto derivatives market already topping $800 billion annually, this move could siphon volume from offshore giants like Binance and Bybit. “We are bringing trust and scale to BTC futures,” an SGX exec said, touting tight oversight and institutional grade infrastructure. It’s a big flex for Singapore, cementing its rep as a global crypto hub after luring firms with clear rules and tax perks.
The Crypto faithful are buzzing: “SGX just made Singapore the BTC futures king!” one trader posted. With Bitcoin at $80,000 post dip, and institutional appetite surging, these perpetuals, settled in USD could draw Wall Street and Asian whales alike. Launching alongside tokenized asset trials, SGX’s play suggest ambition. 2025 is shaping up to be Singapore’s year, watch out, world!
