Binance says its XAUUSDT and XAGUSDT perpetual futures (crypto derivatives without expiry) have recorded strong activity since their January 2026 debut, with daily volume ranging from $500 million to $1 billion.
Binance reported that its gold-linked futures products reached $100 billion in trading volume within four months of launching in January 2026. The platform introduced XAUUSDT and XAGUSDT perpetual futures (crypto derivatives without expiry) with leverage of up to 50x, giving traders amplified exposure to gold and silver price movements without holding the underlying metals directly. According to the provided figures, daily trading volume has generally ranged between $500 million and $1 billion, while peak activity reached $6.6 billion. The data points to strong early demand for commodity-linked crypto derivatives on the exchange.
