Overview
This category is intended to group articles related to the underlying technological and financial infrastructure supporting Cryptocurrency futures trading. This includes exchanges, clearing houses, custody solutions, regulatory frameworks, and the core blockchain or distributed ledger technologies (DLT) upon which various digital assets are based.
The goal is to provide neutral, factual documentation on the systems that enable the trading, settlement, and custody of crypto derivatives.
Scope and Inclusion Criteria
Articles belonging in this category should focus on the mechanisms, technology, or established entities that facilitate the trading of cryptocurrency futures contracts. Examples of appropriate topics include:
- **Exchanges:** Centralized and decentralized platforms that list and match orders for crypto futures.
- **Clearing and Settlement:** The processes and entities responsible for guaranteeing trades and transferring ownership/collateral.
- **Custody Solutions:** The technological methods (e.g., cold storage, multi-signature wallets) used by institutions to secure the underlying or collateral assets.
- **Trading Technology:** Infrastructure related to order matching engines, latency, and data feeds used in futures markets.
- **Regulatory Frameworks:** The legal structures governing the operation of crypto futures infrastructure in specific jurisdictions.
Exclusion Criteria
The following topics are generally not appropriate for this category, although related articles may exist elsewhere on the wiki:
- Articles focused solely on the mechanics of specific futures contracts (e.g., "Perpetual Swaps"). These belong in contract-specific categories.
- Articles focused on the underlying cryptocurrency asset itself (e.g., "Bitcoin"). These belong in asset-specific categories.
- Articles promoting specific trading strategies or software tools.
- Articles that lack verifiable, published sources regarding their operational status or technology.
Editing Guidelines for Infrastructure Articles
When contributing to or creating articles within this category, editors must adhere to the following standards to maintain neutrality and accuracy:
1. **Verifiability:** All claims regarding system capacity, security features, or regulatory status must be supported by reliable, third-party sources, such as regulatory filings, official exchange documentation, or reputable financial news coverage.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> 2. **Neutral Point of View (NPOV):** Descriptions of infrastructure must be objective. Avoid superlative language (e.g., "fastest," "most secure," "best"). Focus on documented specifications and industry standards. 3. **Technical Accuracy:** Ensure that technical descriptions of DLT, consensus mechanisms, or clearing protocols are accurate and clearly explained for a beginner audience. 4. **Distinction Between Spot and Derivatives:** Clearly delineate which infrastructure components are dedicated solely to futures/derivatives trading versus those that support both spot and derivatives markets.
