Perpetual Swap Trading

Our institutional clients, more than ever, are seeking digital asset market access via a cash-settled perpetual swap that is not simply repackaged pricing coming from a CEX(s) who can’t stay out of the news.

Responding to this demand, BlockFills has partnered with its London-based, FCA regulated affiliate, Basis Capital Markets UK Limited (“Basis”), in the development of a cash-settled perpetual swap product that offers sweeping advantages over the products offered on often unregulated, retail-dominated venues whose technology, pricing, and reliability are not suited for the institutional trading community.

The Most Competitive Funding Rate Environment:

The product’s funding rates are based on actual borrowing costs, rather than averages of what is seen on CEX(s). As a result, when popular exchanges’ rates spike in what often feels like punitive fashion, the rates applied to positions in the perpetual swap have remained relatively muted and manageable. Submit the form to learn more about what makes our funding rate environment so advantageous.

A Resilient Product:

Basis has deployed countless resources in its endeavor to provide the most competitive and reliable perpetual swap product on the market today. Signaling that the platform’s liquidity and reliability is unmatched, highest volumes have been recording during periods of high volatility such as:
