In a surprise announcement, Binance has confirmed the listing of Donald Trump's new meme coin, Official Trump (TRUMP), on its futures platform.
The altcoin, which was launched earlier today, has already amassed a market capitalization in excess of $4 billion, with its price up around 200% in the last 24 hours.
Binance’s statement:
In order to expand the range of options trading on Binance Futures and enhance the trading experience for users, Binance Futures will introduce the TRUMPUSDT perpetual contract on 2025-01-18 at 3:00 p.m. (EDT) with leverage up to 25x.
Depending on market risk conditions, Binance reserves the right to adjust the specifications of the TRUMP/USDT futures contract, which may include changes to the funding fee, maximum leverage, initial margin or maintenance margin requirements.
The listing of TRUMP on Binance Futures marks a significant milestone for the token, which has quickly gained popularity among traders. With its remarkable growth in market value and the introduction of futures trading, the meme coin is in a position to attract a lot more attention from investors.
