November 12, 2025, Bermuda — HashKey Global, a leading regulated cryptocurrency exchange, today announced the launch of one of the first BTC USD-margined perpetual contracts, allowing users to trade using the U.S. dollar as both margin and settlement currency. This eliminates the need to hold stablecoins or perform currency conversion, reduces transaction costs, and enhances capital efficiency.

The product is designed for institutional investors and enterprises who hold fiat or USD-denominated assets, seeking optimized capital efficiency and compliance-grade protection, with applications in USD asset allocation and risk hedging. It will also be made available to retail users at a later stage.

Reserve funds for the BTCUSD perpetual contract will be maintained in a dedicated fiat risk reserve account and safeguarded under bank-grade custody and segregation standards to ensure fund security and settlement integrity. The USD-based design draws upon the framework widely adopted in traditional finance. This design aligns with international best practices for custody and settlement.

Ben El-Baz, Head of Global Expansion at HashKey Group, commented:

“The digital asset market is rapidly entering a new era driven by regulatory standards. This launch bridges perpetual derivatives into a fiat-based custody and settlement structure. We will continue to enhance platform safeguards and operational controls, enabling investors to access the market with greater security and efficiency. ”
