BitMEX Launches 24/7 FX Perpetuals Including EUR/USD for Crypto Traders

BitMEX has launched six FX perpetual swap contracts, including EUR/USD, enabling crypto traders to access 24/7 major pair trading with up to 100x leverage and 0% base interest rates, eliminating overnight fees. Coverage began midday highlighting crypto-forex convergence and pressure on traditional brokers, as EUR/USD represents ~23% of daily FX volume. Later updates detailed continuous pricing via external feeds in market hours and internal order books off-hours, potentially increasing weekend liquidity and volatility from crypto-native flows.
