Phantom Wallet announced futures trading
Imagine that you’re sitting at your desk, coffee’s gone cold, and suddenly you realize trading futures just got way easier.
No more hopping between platforms, no more fumbling with complicated transfers.
That’s the magic Phantom Wallet just dropped on the crypto market. They teamed up with Hyperliquid, and boom, perpetual futures trading right inside the app.
Perps
Futures trading used to be like trying to sneak into a high-stakes poker game without knowing the rules.
You had to bounce between wallets, exchanges, and pray you didn’t mess up your private keys.
Risky business. But now? Phantom’s got a new tab called ‘Perps’ where you pick your trading pair, Bitcoin , Ethereum, Solana, Dogecoin, PEPE, over 100 assets to choose from.
You set your leverage, up to 40x, no less, stop-loss, take-profit, all without leaving the wallet.
And your private keys never leave your control. That’s security you can trust, like a made guy watching your back.
Evolution
What happened next? The process is pretty slick. You deposit SOL tokens, and Phantom automatically swaps them to USDC on Hyperliquid’s platform.
No manual transfers, no headaches. It’s like ordering a pizza and having it delivered hot, no questions asked.
With over 15 million monthly active users, even if a small slice of that crowd dives into futures trading, we’re talking potential volumes in the tens of billions. This move could seriously shake up Phantom’s standing in the crypto world.
Now, the new paradigm is that Phantom’s not just a wallet anymore. It’s evolving into a universal crypto hub, store your coins, stake them, trade NFTs, now futures trading, all under one roof.
Expansion
Sure, some people grumble about the automatic SOL-to-USDC conversion possibly pressuring SOL’s price, and the fees, up to 0.85% during conversion, aren’t exactly pocket change.
But Phantom’s team says these are standard market rates, nothing out of the ordinary. You gotta pay the toll to ride the highway, right?
Looking ahead, Phantom’s path started as a Solana wallet, but since 2023, it’s been expanding its empire, Ethereum, Polygon, Base, Sui, Bitcoin, and soon Monad.
Strategic acquisitions and steady upgrades show they’re playing the long game, aiming to make decentralized finance accessible, secure, and user-friendly.
