OKX introduced USDT-settled perpetual futures for nine major U.S. tech stocks and ETFs on March 4, 2026. The offerings include Nvidia, Microsoft, Apple, and Meta, as well as semiconductor stocks Micron and SanDisk, alongside the QQQ and SPY ETFs.

These contracts allow traders to gain leveraged exposure with options from 0.01x to 5x, enabling trading outside traditional hours without needing a separate brokerage account. The launch follows a phased schedule to manage liquidity and is part of OKX's strategy to cater to the growing interest in AI-driven assets. The contracts are purely derivative, providing price exposure without ownership of the underlying stocks, ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements.
