We encourage everyone to explore Futures trading on the testnet and actively stress test it.It’s important to note that this is not a finalized product; we eagerly anticipate ongoing improvements and addressing any bugs identified through public testing.What’s Horizon Futures?Horizon Futures are decentralized perpetual swap contracts that enable traders to take on long or short positions with leverage without the need to own the underlying assets, and these contracts have no expiration date. Unlike centralized futures exchanges, where the exchange maintains custody of assets and where traders trade against the exchange itself, Horizon Futures involves trading against the liquidity provided by the HZN community and self-custody is maintained.<img src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1400/0*RCzcAsX5XCeD4lGP" />Horizon FuturesDiscover the important components that contribute to Horizon Futures Exchanges, ensuring a seamless trading experience for traders.
