Binance Futures Lists CTUSDT Perpetual Contract for Concrete

Binance Futures added a perpetual contract for Concrete’s CT token on October 1, giving traders leveraged exposure to the governance asset of the institutional on-chain finance platform. The $USDT-margined CTUSDT perpetual went live at 07:45 UTC with up to 20x leverage, according to Binance’s listing announcement. Perpetual contracts carry no expiry date, letting traders hold long or short positions indefinitely while paying or receiving periodic funding rates.

The listing details

CTUSDT is a $USDT-margined perpetual, meaning positions are collateralized and settled in $USDT rather than in the underlying CT token. Binance set maximum leverage at 20x, and the contract settles continuously instead of expiring on a fixed date. Funding rates, margin requirements, and liquidation thresholds are set by Binance and adjust with market conditions, so traders holding leveraged positions can be liquidated if the price moves against them. Because gains and losses are measured in $USDT, traders can size positions without separately managing a CT balance.

What Concrete and CT do

CT is the governance and configuration token of Concrete, a protocol that positions itself as a full-stack institutional operating system for on-chain finance, spanning asset issuance, vault infrastructure, accounting, and working capital. The token has a maximum supply of 1 billion, and it already trades on spot markets including Binance, Coinbase, and OKX. Concrete has been building out institutional DeFi tooling this year, teaming up with Euler earlier in 2026 to develop institutional lending rails, part of a broader push to bring regulated-style infrastructure to decentralized markets. A derivatives listing gives institutional users another venue to manage CT exposure as the protocol’s token-enabled governance matures.

Binance’s expanding derivatives lineup

The listing extends a busy stretch for Binance Futures, which keeps adding perpetual contracts across crypto and tokenized equities. Last week, the exchange listed five new TradFi perpetual contracts covering major stocks. For a newer token like CT, a derivatives listing typically deepens liquidity and gives traders a way to hedge or short exposure without holding the underlying asset. That added flexibility comes with the usual leveraged-trading risks, including liquidation when a position moves against a trader’s margin. For Binance, the listing also reinforces its role as a venue where newer tokens can secure liquid derivatives markets soon after their spot debut, a dynamic that has defined the exchange’s perpetual growth strategy this year.
