Users of the popular crypto wallet Trust Wallet can now trade perpetual futures directly within the app. The new feature brings access to over 100 markets with up to 100x leverage, marking the wallet’s major expansion into decentralized derivatives trading.
The perpetual futures trading option operates in partnership with the Aster DEX, ensuring a fully on-chain and self-custodial trading experience. Later, the functionality will also integrate Trust Wallet Token (TWT), allowing token holders to receive exclusive trading discounts.
“Pure trading freedom — without giving up your keys,” the Trust Wallet team stated when announcing the update.
According to the official release, the new service offers users:
- Over 100 trading pairs;
- Up to 100x leverage;
- Full self-custody of assets;
- On-chain execution for every trade.
As the team explains, users can keep their positions open indefinitely or close them anytime, which defines the concept of “perpetual futures.”
Previously, perpetual futures were mainly offered by centralized exchanges with complex interfaces and custodial risks. Trust Wallet aims to change that by providing a seamless, transparent, and secure trading experience right inside the familiar mobile app.
The system currently supports BNB Smart Chain (BSC), Ethereum (ETH), Arbitrum (ARB), and Solana (SOL) networks, with more integrations planned soon.
Trust Wallet’s team also reminds users to approach margin trading with caution:
“Perpetual futures involve leverage and carry high risks — they may not be suitable for everyone. Always do your own research.”
The service is not available in the United States, United Kingdom, and other restricted regions.
Earlier this year, Trust Wallet expanded its ecosystem by launching Ethereum staking in January 2024 and announcing a partnership with The Open Network (TON) in July.
