Binance is adding a new way to trade foreign currencies using perpetual futures.

The first contract will follow the value of the U.S. dollar compared with Brazil’s real.

It is scheduled to begin trading on September 21, 2026.

Unlike regular currency markets, this contract can be traded every day and every hour.

It does not have an expiration date, so traders do not need to replace it when a contract ends.

Binance will use different pricing methods when regular currency markets are open or closed.

The company says this could help people trade on weekend news and manage financial risks.

However, the product can be dangerous because prices can move quickly, leverage can increase losses, and traders could lose their collateral.
