Injective Pro Launches NFT Floor Price Perpetuals
Injective Pro, the premier fully-decentralized derivatives exchange built on Injective, is now the first-ever exchange to list an NFT floor price perpetual market with the BAYC/WETH listing.
The Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) collection debuted in 2021 with 10,000 unique NFTs. The NFTs have since been catapulted to mainstream fame with the help of celebrity endorsements from the likes of Justin Bieber, Madonna, and Tom Brady.
Since its launch, BAYC prices have risen astronomically, with a recent floor price value (as of April 2022) of over 120 ETH (~$370,000).
On Injective Pro, users will be able to go long or short on NFT collections for as little as $1, allowing more users to gain exposure to high-value assets or hedge against NFT market volatility.
Injective Labs, the software development firm company behind Injective Pro, worked with NFT portfolio management company NFTBank to create a custom price feed for the BAYC collection, which validates the initial price of the market. Burnt Finance, the fully decentralized NFT protocol, helps to host the price feed.
“The NFT market has now entered the mainstream but the most popular collections such as Bored Ape Yacht Club remain out of reach for most given the high prices,” said Eric Chen, CEO and co-founder of Injective Labs. “The Bored Ape Yacht Club floor price perpetuals seek to allow everyday traders to gain exposure into this market, thereby leveling the playing field for most to join the Bored Ape community.”
