Summary
WEEX has launched a single-account product that allows traders to access crypto futures alongside traditional finance futures, including gold, crude oil, equities and indices, according to coverage of the announcement by Traders Union. The broker states that all of these markets can be traded using USDT as the sole settlement currency, which it says eliminates the need for multiple accounts or fiat conversions.
According to the broker, the launch includes adjustable leverage that varies by asset type and continuous trading hours for TradFi futures. Coverage notes that liquidity and spreads may vary depending on the market session, a relevant consideration for commodity and equity index contracts that trade on different schedules than crypto assets.
WEEX has paired the rollout with promotional measures, including zero trading fees during an initial period, reward programs tied to trading activity, and risk protection measures for certain new traders. Promotional terms and durations were not detailed in the available material.
WEEX is primarily known as a cryptocurrency derivatives platform offering USDT-margined and coin-margined contracts, copy trading and a 1,000 BTC protection fund. The TradFi expansion extends that product set into commodities and equity exposure through a single USDT-margined account.
