MyEtherWallet adds Ondo Perps for 24/7 leveraged crypto trading

MyEtherWallet (MEW) announced the integration of Ondo Finance’s perpetual futures contracts, enabling users to trade tokenized equities and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) with leverage 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

The move expands MEW’s on-chain trading capabilities beyond traditional cryptocurrencies, allowing investors to access leveraged positions in assets such as U.S. equities and ETFs through Ondo’s on-chain perpetual futures protocol. The integration leverages Ethereum’s blockchain to settle trades and manage positions, providing a decentralized alternative to traditional derivatives platforms.

Ondo Perps, a product of Ondo Finance, facilitates margin trading without expiration dates, mirroring the mechanics of traditional perpetual futures contracts. MEW users can now open long or short positions with leverage, subject to platform-specific risk parameters and liquidation thresholds.

The integration follows growing demand for tokenized traditional assets in decentralized finance (DeFi), where MEW has positioned itself as a gateway for users seeking exposure to both crypto-native and traditional financial instruments. Ondo Finance, a DeFi protocol specializing in on-chain financial products, has expanded its offerings to include tokenized U.S. Treasuries and corporate bonds in recent months.

MEW did not disclose specific trading volumes or adoption metrics in its announcement. The integration is live as of the publication date.
