Decrypt adds perpetual futures trading through Solana exchange Phoenix

The crypto news outlet now lets readers go long or short on crypto, US stocks, gold and pre-IPO names without leaving the site Decrypt wants you to stop reading about the market and start trading it, on the same page. The crypto and markets publication is integrating perpetual futures trading powered by Phoenix, a Solana -based exchange. Decrypt is billing itself as the first media platform to let readers take long or short positions on the news they just finished reading. A perpetual future, or “perp,” is a derivative contract that tracks an asset’s price but never expires. Traders can bet on prices rising (going long) or falling (going short), usually with leverage, and hold the position as long as they want.
