According to The Block, Binance’s Futures API update on December 11 introduces a new REST endpoint, POST /fapi/v1/stock/contract, enabling users to sign the TradFi-Perps Protocol Contract for stock-linked perpetuals. This move signals potential groundwork for stock perpetual contracts, though Binance has not issued an official launch announcement and product details remain undisclosed as of publication.

The endpoint is typically a prerequisite for live trading of stock perpetual contracts, implying a staged rollout rather than an immediate product launch. With no accompanying documentation, traders should await formal guidance on eligibility, risk controls, and margining before engaging the new protocol.

Market participants will continue to monitor Binance communications and regulatory disclosures for clarity on calibration, liquidity impact, and compliance alignment related to the TradFi-Perps Protocol initiative.
