Perpetual Futures
Futures are derivatives, meaning that they are not the real asset—they just follow the price of an asset. Traditional futures have an expiry date, and the price of a future will move closer to the actual price of the underlying asset as that date draws near.
Perpetual futures do not have an expiry date, making them very convenient if you want to keep holding the asset without having to think about expiry.
Future contracts allow traders to speculate on the price movement of an underlying asset without actual ownership of the underlying asset, by buying (long) or selling (short) the contract.
