Market speculation It may be a new token, potentially associated with a Web3 or meme-coin project that is gaining momentum. The perpetual types of contract imply that traders are not limited to having expiry dates. Binance maintains a funding-rate system (typically revaluated after every 8 hours) to maintain the contract price at par with the spot price. The 5 times leverage limit indicates that Binance is targeting the group of traders who prefer a more conservative approach to leverage and limiting systemic risk, particularly with the focus on safer leverage limits in the regulations in 2024.
