Binance announced five USDT-priced perpetual contracts tied to individual U.S. equities for Sept. 28, 2026, launching from 09:00 to 09:20 UTC in five-minute intervals. The contracts will trade continuously with up to 20x leverage, eight-hour funding settlements and Multi-Assets Mode, allowing users to trade stock-related derivatives with USDT outside regular U.S. equity-market hours. Binance said the products may offer a way to respond to macroeconomic developments and hedge exposure, and that users do not need a traditional U.S. brokerage account, although availability varies by region.
