Webull plans to add Bitcoin (BTC) perpetual futures to its U.S. derivatives offering in November, with access through existing Webull Futures accounts for eligible customers approved to trade futures.

The initial lineup will include Bitcoin and selected crypto assets. KalshiEX LLC will list the contracts, and Kalshi Klear LLC will handle clearing. Webull expects to broaden availability before the end of 2026.

Perpetual futures have no scheduled expiration date. Positions still involve periodic funding payments and margin requirements. Funding mechanisms help align a perpetual contract’s price with its underlying reference price, while a position may be liquidated automatically if margin falls below maintenance requirements.

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) approved KalshiEX’s BTCPERP contract on May 29, 2026, one day after it was submitted for review. The CFTC classified BTCPERP as a futures contract that references Bitcoin’s spot price. Kalshi’s existing BTCPERP contract is cash-settled, with no physical Bitcoin delivery or fixed expiration date.
