LMAX Expands Perpetual Futures Offering Beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum

LMAX Group has expanded its perpetual futures (Perps) range beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum, adding multiple digital asset instruments to meet growing institutional demand.

The cross-asset marketplace said the move reflects evolving interest in digital asset derivatives. Institutions are increasingly seeking broader market access alongside execution quality.

The expanded Perps lineup now includes Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, XRP, Solana, TRON, Dogecoin, Cardano, Uniswap, Chainlink, Aave, Aptos, BNB, Toncoin, Sui, Avalanche, Polkadot, Internet Computer, Hedera, and Near, in addition to Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Perpetual futures are currently available to clients of LMAX Global MU. The products allow institutions to gain exposure to crypto price movements without owning the underlying assets.

LMAX highlighted several features of the offering. These include no expiry dates, the ability to hold positions as long as funding is maintained, and leverage of up to 100:1 depending on client profiles.

The company also pointed to low latency execution speeds, measured at less than 400 microseconds on AWS infrastructure. The platform is designed to deliver tight spreads and transparent fees for institutional participants.

LMAX indicated that expanding the range of Perps supports institutions looking to broaden derivatives capabilities. It also enables round-the-clock market access and more flexible trading and hedging strategies across a wider set of digital assets.

The expansion comes as demand for crypto derivatives continues to rise among institutional traders seeking diversified exposure. LMAX Group has been building out its digital asset offering in parallel with its established FX marketplace to meet this growing segment of the market.
