Binance Futures has introduced a new perpetual contract for SONICUSDT, enabling users to trade the token with up to 75x leverage. The listing, launched on January 8, 2025, at 07:00 UTC, marks a significant milestone for Sonic SVM (SONIC), a project focused on games and decentralized applications built on Solana’s blockchain. Market data indicates that SONIC experienced a staggering 70% price increase within 24 hours of the announcement.

The perpetual contract offers several features, including:

  • USDT-settled payments.
  • 0.0001 tick size.
  • +2.00% / -2.00% funding rate cap.
  • Funding fee payments every four hours.
  • 24/7 trading availability.

Binance has noted that contract specifications may be adjusted based on market conditions. This development comes alongside Sonic’s Token Generation Event (TGE) for the $SONIC token, marking a major evolution for the platform.
