Binance Futures will launch three new USDT-margined perpetual futures contracts on July 27, 2026. With the TMFUSDT, TBTUSDT and BITOUSDT contracts, the exchange is expanding its product range into exchange-traded funds linked to the U.S. Treasury market and Bitcoin. TMF, TBT, and BITO (the underlying assets of the three contracts) are not company stocks; they are, respectively, leveraged bond funds managed by Direxion and ProShares, and a strategic fund based on Bitcoin futures.
The three contracts target different market expectations
TMFUSDT will track the Direxion Daily 20+ Year Treasury Bull 3X ETF. The fund aims to deliver three times the daily performance of long-term U.S. Treasury bonds and is generally favored by investors who expect interest rates to fall.
TBTUSDT represents the opposite position. Its underlying asset, the ProShares UltraShort 20+ Year Treasury ETF, seeks to deliver twice the inverse of the daily performance of long-term Treasury bonds. The contract therefore provides a tool for traders who expect interest rates to rise.
The third product, BITOUSDT, will be based on the ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF. Rather than holding Bitcoin directly, the fund provides exposure to Bitcoin price movements through futures contracts. Its addition to Binance gives the exchange another derivatives product offering indirect exposure to Bitcoin.
Binance continues expanding its TradFi futures strategy
The three contracts mark the latest step in Binance’s effort to bring traditional financial assets onto its crypto futures infrastructure. The exchange began this expansion with gold and silver earlier in 2026 before extending it to stocks, leveraged ETFs and index funds.
Throughout July, Binance listed contracts tracking companies including Strategy Inc., Caterpillar, Texas Instruments and Take-Two Interactive. Products linked to semiconductor and South Korean stock indexes also joined the platform.
According to a report published by Binance Research, perpetual futures contracts linked to ETFs generated more than $116 billion in total trading volume during the first seven months of 2026. The segment recorded average monthly growth of around 170%, while Binance accounted for 74% of the total volume.
This growth continues to strengthen the bridge Binance is building between traditional finance and crypto derivatives markets.
What does this mean for investors?
These USDT-margined contracts allow users to gain exposure to funds traded on U.S. stock exchanges without opening a traditional brokerage account. Investors can trade the products with crypto assets and access the market 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Traditional ETF markets operate during set trading sessions. Perpetual futures contracts on Binance, by comparison, provide continuous pricing.
However, the risks associated with leveraged products remain significant. Contracts based on funds such as TMF and TBT, which already use 3x and 2x leverage, can experience much sharper short-term price movements than their underlying assets.
This structure can lead to unexpected losses, particularly for investors who keep positions open for extended periods.
Binance generally publishes contract specifications and leverage limits on its official announcement page. Before trading, investors should verify technical details such as funding rates, position limits and minimum order sizes through the exchange’s official resources.
