BTSE’s Futures 2.0 deliver a crucial technological innovation which no other Bitcoin futures options provide today: multi-asset margin and settlement .
When you trade futures contracts, you post a certain amount of funds as margin to back your position. Conventional cryptocurrency futures exchanges limit margin posting and contract settlement to one asset. For example, you would post margin in BTC and receive your payout in BTC. This restricts you in your trading strategies: you may not want to use BTC as your margin asset, or if you are going short, you may not like to receive your payout in the asset you are going short on.
