Perpetual Futures Trades : Top Ten Points to remember:

Core Points about Perpetual Futures
💡 Concept Origin: The idea of a contract that never expires (a perpetual future) was first suggested by economist Robert Shiller in 1993 for assets that are hard to price, like real estate.

🚀 Crypto Launch: The concept was first applied to cryptocurrency trading in 2016 by Arthur Hayes and his team at the BitMEX exchange.

⏳ No Expiration: A perpetual future is like a regular futures contract, but it can be held indefinitely—it never has a fixed expiration date.
