Gate Index Zone to Launch BVIX (BTC Volatility Index) and EVIX (ETH Volatility Index) Perpetual Contracts Trading

According to an official announcement, Gate's Index Zone will launch real-time trading for BVIX (BTC Volatility Index) and EVIX (ETH Volatility Index) perpetual contracts (USDT-settled) on January 28th at 15:00 (UTC+8), supporting 1-50x leverage.

Gate's index perpetual contracts are based on mainstream global indices and volatility indices, introducing market sentiment indicators into the crypto derivatives trading system. While maintaining the advantages of USDT settlement and 7×24 hour trading, they provide users with trading options that are closer to the global macro market. As an important indicator for measuring market uncertainty, the rise and fall of the VIX reflects changes in investor expectations of risk and is often used for hedging and risk aversion. Its launch further provides investors with more professional trading tools, expanding opportunities for cross-market trading and strategic positioning.
