Ondo Perps’ CEO said the U.S. market presents a “huge opportunity” for perpetual futures, while no U.S. launch has been confirmed. The company is described as an offshore perpetual futures platform for tokenized assets, and the CEO said any onshore version would need a different settlement and clearing structure to fit local rules. U.S. regulators and several firms are testing how perpetual futures could enter domestic markets.

What it means

Who it affects, what changes and what is still unconfirmed

Each sentence links inside to the piece that supports it.

Users, trading firms, and regulators watching perpetual futures in the U.S. are the groups that would notice this most immediately. It signals that the market discussion has moved to whether an onshore version can fit local rules, while no U.S. launch has been confirmed yet.

In practice, the setup is not the same as before because an onshore version would need a different settlement and clearing structure. The offshore platform described here already exists, and that part of the business remains separate from any confirmed U.S. rollout.
