Deribit Partners With Paxos to Launch Pax Gold Futures and Options Trading

Published

on

Deribit will now offer spot, perpetual, futures, and derivatives for the PAXG token

DUBAI, UAE, Dec. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Deribit, the world’s premier digital assets derivatives exchange, today announced it has added support for the Pax Gold (PAXG), a token created by Paxos that is backed 1:1 by a fine troy ounce of LMBA good delivery gold vaulted in London. By adding PAXG to its platform, Deribit empowers traders to diversify their portfolios and hedge against market volatility. PAXG offers a unique opportunity to gain exposure to gold, a traditional safe-haven asset, within the digital asset ecosystem.

Within the first week of launch, Deribit trading volume exceeded a quarter billion USD in notional value for gold, underscoring the growing demand for trading traditional assets on the blockchain. The partnership between Deribit and Paxos will allow investors to trade high-quality products that until now were missing in the crypto ecosystem, such as liquid gold options. PAXG also increases the versatility of Deribit’s cross-collateral feature by giving users more choice over the assets they hold as collateral.

Deribit CEO Luuk Strijers said, “With the addition of Pax Gold, users can now leverage the perpetual or dated futures for the usual delta one strategies, or they have the choice to generate yield, hedge, or create various different strategies with the options. We are committed to providing Deribit users with a wealth of options, offering flexibility that matches their risk profile.”

PAXG is an ERC-20 token from Paxos backed by 1:1 with LMBA accredited gold reserves, offering investors a cost-effective way to own investment-grade physical gold in digital form. Deribit now offers a range of PAXG products, including spot, perpetual, futures and options contracts. This range of products will enable traders to construct their portfolios to deal with potential market volatility, inflation and geopolitical risks.

Nick Robnett, Head of Asset Growth at Paxos, added, “Pax Gold is a blockchain asset where each individual token is backed by an ounce of real, physical gold. It offers all the benefits of physical gold with the convenience and mobility of digital assets. Through Deribit, traders can now gain seamless access to the highest-grade physical gold held in custody by Paxos.”

Deribit’s commitment to providing cutting-edge trading solutions is further demonstrated by its recent achievements, including the launch of a hybrid custody model and the attainment of SOC 2 Type 2 certification. These advancements, combined with the addition of Pax Gold, solidify Deribit’s position as a leading platform for professional traders.
