Crypto traders can now take leveraged bets on silver via Binance Futures

Binance Futures is set to launch silver perpetual contracts on Wednesday, allowing crypto traders to place leveraged bets on silver priced in U.S. dollars per troy ounce, offering up to 50x leverage. These perpetual contracts, which have no expiration date, will be margined and settled in tether (USDT) and will feature a funding fee capped at ±2% every four hours. This launch follows Binance's recent introduction of gold perpetuals, signaling a trend of crypto traders diversifying into precious metals, which significantly outperformed the crypto market in 2025 (silver rallied 147% while Bitcoin fell over 5%). Binance is the first major exchange to offer silver perpetuals, and the contract will support multi-assets mode, allowing cryptocurrencies like BTC to be used as margin collateral.
