OKX will launch perpetual USDT contracts on December 11 with up to 50x leverage for its Virtual Protocol token and Tron-based meme coin.
In a recent notification, leading crypto exchange OKX announced that it will list AI broker platform token VIRTUAL and meme coin SUNDOG (SUNDOG) as USDT (USDT) margin perpetual futures. Trading support for VIRTUAL/USDT perpetual futures will begin at 10:00 UTC on December 11, while SUNDOG/USDT trading will begin at 10:15 UTC the same day.
Both perpetual contracts have a minimum leverage of 0.01x and a maximum leverage of up to 50x.
The funding fee determined for both forward contracts will be +1.50% and -1.50% with zero interest. The funding fee calculation frequency is set to occur every four hours. The tick size for the SUNDOG/USDT and VIRTUAL/USDT perpetual contracts has been set to 0.0001.
The exchange stated that it will set the upper limit for the funding fee for both perpetual contracts at 0.03% before 16:00 UTC on December 11, in order to prevent unreasonable fee increases due to fluctuations in newly launched futures trading. The funding fee cap will return to 1.5% after 16:00 UTC. The funding fee for this period will be collected on December 11, 20:00 UTC.
