Starting January 28, 2026, at 2:30 p.m. UTC, traders will be able to access TSLAUSDT perpetual contracts on Binance Futures with up to five times leverage.
This addition reflects the growing trend of linking traditional financial assets with crypto derivatives, providing users with more trading options and flexibility.
Exploring Stock Perpetual Contracts
Stock perpetual contracts are a type of derivative that allow traders to speculate on the price of a stock without actually owning it. In this case, TSLAUSDT tracks the price of Tesla Inc. common stock on Nasdaq. Binance users can trade these contracts 24/7, using USD T as a settlement asset. The minimum trade amount is 0.01 TSLA and the minimum notional value is 5 USD T. Binance will also implement a capped funding rate of plus or minus 2%, settled every four hours.

A key feature of Binance’s offering is multi-asset mode. This allows users to trade TSLAUSDT using multiple margined assets, such as Bitcoin, instead of just USD T. By leveraging multiple assets, traders can maximize capital efficiency while managing risk. Real-world adoption of stock futures is increasing. For example, in 2024, CME Group’s Bitcoin and stock futures saw record trading volumes, reflecting growing institutional and retail interest in derivatives markets linked to traditional assets.
Benefits and Considerations
The TSLAUSDT perpetual contract offers users a way to access Tesla’s price movements without owning the underlying shares. With maximum leverage of 5x, traders can amplify potential gains, although higher leverage also increases risk. Binance notes that contract specifications, such as funding fees, tick sizes, and margin requirements, may change depending on market conditions. This ensures that contracts remain fair and aligned with liquidity and volatility dynamics.

This launch also reflects a broader trend: crypto exchanges are increasingly integrating traditional assets into their platforms. Traders now have the ability to hedge their portfolios, speculate on price movements, or gain exposure to global stocks from a single crypto account.
