KoinBX Announces Futures Trading Launch with Zero‑Fee Subscription Model
On August 14, 2026, KoinBX, a Bengaluru‑based cryptocurrency exchange focused on the Indian market, issued a press release stating that its futures trading platform, KoinBX Futures, will go live on August 15, 2026. The launch adds a leveraged futures product to the exchange’s existing suite, allowing traders to take both long and short positions across multiple futures markets with real‑time market data, advanced charting, fast order execution and risk‑management tools.
A central element of the rollout is the Futures Pass, a subscription‑based, prepaid offering that grants zero trading fees on eligible futures trades for the duration of the pass. The Pass provides a predefined trading‑fee allowance; once the allowance is exhausted, standard fees apply. The pass terms, allowance limits and eligibility conditions are detailed in the KoinBX Futures Pass documentation and are subject to change.
KoinBX positions the Futures Pass as a first‑of‑its‑kind approach in crypto futures, shifting from per‑trade fee charges to a predictable subscription model. The company argues that this structure offers greater cost visibility for high‑frequency traders, potentially reducing the cumulative fee burden that can erode profitability when trading frequently.
The futures product includes standard features such as leverage, the ability to open both long and short positions, and integrated risk‑management tools. KoinBX emphasizes that while leverage can amplify exposure, it also magnifies both gains and losses, and therefore traders should fully understand the associated risks before participating.
The press release concludes with a disclaimer that futures trading involves significant risk, leverage can amplify profits and losses, and traders are urged to comprehend these risks. The announcement is distributed under an arrangement with PNN, and PTI disclaims editorial responsibility for the content.
