Binance Wallet, in collaboration with decentralized exchange Aster, launched an integrated perpetual contract trading feature on January 14, allowing users direct trading control on the Binance Smart Chain. This integration enhances user control over crypto trading, marking a significant decentralization milestone within Binance's ecosystem, while potentially increasing trading activity in BNB, USDT, BTC, and ETH.
Perpetuals Trading Directly Within the Wallet
Binance Wallet and Aster have introduced perpetual contract trading integrated directly on their web-based platform. Users retain control of their assets while trading within the ecosystem. Trading assets include BNB, BTC, and ETH. The integration highlights Binance's commitment to decentralized finance innovations, as noted by Winson Liu, Global Head of Binance Wallet.
This development fuels changes in trading dynamics by embedding decree-free perpetual options into user wallets. Users can now access more tailored trading functionalities without relinquishing asset custody. The announcement arrived simultaneously with Binance's commitment to security and user-centric services.

This further demonstrates our long-term commitment to building a secure and trustworthy decentralized gateway. Our collaboration with Aster allows us to deliver a seamless, transparent, and efficient trading experience for our users, which aligns perfectly with our dedication to security and ease of use." — Winson Liu, Global Head of Binance Wallet
BNB Price Trends Amid On-Chain Perpetual Launch
This integration marks Binance’s first on-chain perpetuals within its ecosystem, offering a precedent for decentralized finance, showcasing the evolving acceptance of direct wallet trading as a mainstream solution for crypto users.
