Blockchain.com adds SpaceX-linked perpetuals as pre-IPO trading expands

Blockchain.com has launched 24/7 institutional perpetual trading and introduced a product linked to SpaceX, adding to the growing list of crypto venues offering exposure tied to the company’s anticipated public debut. The rollout places Blockchain.com alongside Binance, Kraken, Bybit and Coinbase, which have also introduced products connected to SpaceX.

The development matters because it shows how crypto exchanges are broadening their institutional offerings around high-profile private companies. Products tied to pre-IPO names can attract market attention from traders looking for access to assets that are not yet publicly listed, while also underscoring competition among exchanges in the derivatives and institutional trading space.

By adding perpetual trading, Blockchain.com is extending its market infrastructure beyond spot-style activity and into products that can run continuously. That fits a broader trend in crypto markets, where exchanges are increasingly packaging traditional market demand into 24/7 derivatives products.

The SpaceX-linked listing also reflects the wider momentum around pre-IPO trading products. As more exchanges move to offer these instruments, the segment is becoming a visible part of the crypto trading landscape, especially for institutions seeking access to alternative market exposure through digital asset platforms.
