Horizon Futures Mainnet Goes LIVE on June 17th!We are thrilled to announce that Horizon Futures trading is going LIVE on the BSC mainnet with BTC, ETH, and BNB markets on June 17th! Smart contracts for BTC, ETH, and BNB markets will be deployed to the protocol.

Successful Audit of Horizon Futures FAMS ConcludesWe are pleased to share with you that the audit for Horizon Protocol’s Futures Account Management System (FAMS) has been successfully completed.

Horizon Futures Testnet V2 Now Live!Horizon Protocol reaches the final stage of development before the mainnet release!

Tech Update: Futures Account Management System Audit in ProgressAs we approach the final stages of integrating exciting new features into Horizon Futures’ second testnet, we are pleased to share that our code is undergoing a thorough audit done by AstraSec. The audit encompasses all the new code implemented to support the integration of the highly anticipated Futures Account Management System (FAMS), which enables many features such as stop and limit orders on the Horizon Protocol Futures Exchange. For those unfamiliar, the FAMS is a middle-layer smart contract system that allows the trader to intelligently manage their margin across perpetual futures markets, enables a suite conditional orders (limit, stop, take-profit, and stop-loss orders), and allows for the combining of many ordered commands or actions into a single on-chain transaction. The new system should greatly empower the capabilities of the trader while simultaneously improving UX and the time needed to perform multi-step operations.
