We’re pleased to announce that Kaiko Indices has been selected as the reference rate provider of One Trading’s MiFID II-regulated perpetual futures platform. One Trading is the first venue in the EU to offer fully regulated, cash-settled BTC/EUR and ETH/EUR perpetual futures, and Kaiko Indices’ real-time reference rates serve as a key pricing input supporting One Trading’s 24/7 perpetual futures trading environment. Combined with One Trading’s infrastructure and minute-level settlement cycle, Kaiko Indices benchmarks contribute to accurate pricing of the first regulated perpetual futures venue in the EU.

Robust and transparent pricing is essential for listing, trading, and settling derivatives. Kaiko Indices reference rates are calculated using a rigorous methodology and data from a broad range of high-liquidity exchanges carefully selected for each listed instrument. By delivering an objective and manipulation-resistant view of the market, Kaiko Indices rates support the listing of One Trading’s BTC/EUR and ETH/EUR perpetual futures contracts, ensuring confidence and integrity across the trading platform.

“We are delighted to support One Trading’s mission to make digital asset markets more accessible, transparent, and cost-effective,” said Ambre Soubiran from Kaiko Indices. “Reliable reference rates are a key pillar of reliable and trustworthy derivatives trading, and we look forward to helping drive the next phase of market growth.”

“At One Trading, building the first EU regulated perpetual futures venue from the ground up meant selecting partners who share our commitment to precision, transparency, and performance. Kaiko’s reference rates provide the robust and reliable benchmarks that support our real-time pricing infrastructure. We’re always working toward delivering the best possible user experience, and we’re pleased to partner with Kaiko to help make that a reality.” - Joshua Barraclough, CEO of One Trading.
