Crypto exchanges extend 24/7 trading into traditional markets
Three major crypto exchanges are rolling out continuous access to traditional assets: Bitget offers tokenized equities and stock perpetuals with reported order-book depth and measurable off-hours volume, Binance will launch a USD/BRL perpetual with up to 100x leverage and a weekend pricing switch to an order-book EWMA, and Bybit is creating 24/7 options that use TradFi perpetuals as underlyings. The launches extend trading hours but raise execution and pricing risks when underlying markets are closed, so immediate follow-up will focus on mid-price depth, bid-ask spreads, realized slippage and reopening gaps.
Off-hours liquidity will determine whether 24/7 TradFi is viable
