El Salvador–based Roxom has officially launched bitcoin-denominated perpetual futures for Gold and the S&P 500, allowing traders to price, hedge, and speculate on traditional financial assets entirely in BTC — without ever converting to fiat currency.
With this innovation, Roxom bridges the gap between traditional markets and the Bitcoin economy, offering a new level of autonomy for traders who wish to operate fully within the crypto ecosystem. The move highlights the growing demand for BTC as a unit of account in global finance, not just as an investment asset.
Roxom co-founder Borja Martel Seward called the launch “a foundational step for a new financial era,” emphasizing that BTC-based trading pairs for legacy assets will redefine how global investors interact with markets.
The platform’s BTC-settled perpetuals enable users to gain or hedge exposure to Gold or S&P 500 price movements directly in Bitcoin, simplifying risk management for crypto-native investors and funds.
ROXOM MARKETS S.A. DE C.V., headquartered in El Salvador, operates under a robust regulatory framework: it is authorized as a Digital Asset Service Provider (PSAD) by the National Digital Assets Commission (CNAD) and supervised as a Bitcoin Service Provider (PSD) by the Central Reserve Bank.
By combining traditional financial indices with Bitcoin-denominated derivatives, Roxom positions itself as a key player in the emerging landscape of BTC-native financial instruments, paving the way for a more decentralized and borderless trading environment.
