> The market uses cross margin and applies funding every four hours. Its terms set a 5 AVAX minimum order and a 10,000 AVAX maximum position.

On Nov. 11, edgeX added a perpetual contract for AVAXUSDC, offering exposure to Avalanche (AVAX) with leverage limited to 10x.

The market uses cross margin and funding repeats every four hours. Orders must be at least 5 AVAX, and positions are capped at 10,000 AVAX. The contract terms also set a 1% liquidation fee and 10% spread protection for take-profit and stop-loss orders.

Perpetual markets have no preset expiration date. Periodic funding payments help keep a contract’s trading price close to the asset’s market price.

AVAX pays Primary Network fees, helps secure the platform through staking and serves as a unit of account across Avalanche L1s. The Primary Network minimums are 2,000 AVAX to validate and 25 AVAX to delegate.

The AVAXUSDC contract provides price exposure. It does not confer validator rights, Avalanche L1 or subnet ownership, staking claim vouchers or equity in Ava Labs.
