Head derivatives trading platform announces expansion of cryptocurrency futures product line. According to the latest news, the platform will officially launch futures contracts for the three major mainstream tokens Cardano, Chainlink, and Stellar on February 9.

This move means these tokens will gain institutional-level derivatives trading channels. Cardano, as a representative of smart contract platforms; Chainlink, as a leading oracle; and Stellar, as a cross-border payment network, are all important ecosystems that market participants are paying close attention to. The launch of futures tools will provide market participants with more flexible risk hedging and investment strategy options.

It is worth noting that this product expansion at this time reflects the continued focus of the derivatives market on high-quality projects with small and medium market caps. For investors who are long-term optimistic about the development of these ecosystems, this adds an important trading channel.

ADA-2,49%

LINK-1,45%

XLM-2,91%

ADA, LINK, XLM—all three are now on futures. Now institutions can more easily harvest the retail investors, haha. LINK institutions have locked in so much, won't the futures take off once they open? Which one do you favor on the 9th? I bet XLM gets liquidated. Can ADA make a comeback? Seems like not much has happened in the past two years. When futures leverage is turned on, retail investors' blood flows freely—old story. Chainlink, this big fish, has finally gone leverage. Risk hedging? Basically, it's a meat grinder.

Is ADA about to rise? Finally, the wave is here --- Chainlink, hold steady, please don't drop again --- Another institutional-grade channel, retail investors are about to be harvested again? --- Stellar is a bit unexpected, it has always seemed to lack heat --- Launching three on February 9th, this pace is pretty good --- More and more hedging tools are available, the market maturity is really increasing --- Just wondering if the market will crash after futures go live... --- Cross-border payment network? Stellar should make a comeback --- Another risk hedge, to put it nicely, it basically means shorting --- The oracle leader has futures now, it feels different

Is ADA about to take off? Once futures are out, institutions will need to follow suit. This wave of Chainlink is solid, the confidence token in the oracle track. Why are people still paying attention to Stellar... But with futures out, it shows there's money being deployed. Mark it on February 9th, waiting to harvest the profits. These three coins together suggest someone is planning a big move.

ADA, LINK, XLM go live on futures together, now retail investors are going to get slaughtered again haha More derivatives are emerging, and leverage is becoming cheaper, isn't this a good thing? February 9? Let's wait and see, CZ always has surprises when announcing new products... Institution-level channels? Basically, it's just making it easier for big players to short us. Why do I feel like these three coins are almost silent now, and only now are they going on futures? Most projects that follow the trend and go on futures this time have little momentum. Thinking about ecosystem development? I think it's more about ecosystem bankruptcy haha. After going on futures, the coin prices are likely to be hammered even worse, those who understand know. Wait, Stellar is still alive? I almost forgot about this coin. It's the same old scheme of institutions harvesting small investors, be alert.

ADA is finally here, it was long overdue for institutional-level liquidity Chainlink is steady this time, the leading position of oracles is becoming more solid The timing around February 9th is interesting, probably another big event is about to happen Honestly, I still believe in these three ecosystems; futures tools are a reflection of confidence It feels like the derivatives market is gradually recognizing those overlooked projects, which is a good thing Stellar's cross-border payment sector seems to have been lukewarm all along Institutional entry might dilute opportunities for small investors again, haha This expansion is quite impressive; next, maybe more cryptocurrencies will be added
