Product description

Pre-IPO X-Perps are USD-settled expiry futures whose underlying reference assets are companies that have not yet completed an IPO, allowing users to trade changes in their valuations. You do not hold any equity; you only trade the expiry futures' price movements.They are priced as per-share price × total share count ≈ market cap. Once a company files its official pre-listing disclosure, which includes the actual share count, a Rebase (proportional adjustment) will be executed to keep your position value unchanged. Once the IPO is completed, the expiry futures will gradually be converted to a standard stock expiry futures contract.

Risk warning

  1. The underlying reference assets of these x-perps are not publicly listed and have not yet officially submitted pre-listing documentation; actual total share count, valuation, and IPO timing are uncertain. Please assess the associated risks carefully and bear the relevant risks at your own discretion.

  2. The X-Perps price is determined by market buyers and sellers and may not accurately reflect the post IPO price of the relevant underlying reference asset.

  3. OKX does not guarantee that the underlying reference asset of the X-Perps will ultimately complete an IPO. If an IPO is cancelled, OKX reserves the right to delist or settle the X-Perps at a price determined at OKX's sole discretion, which may differ materially from your entry price.

  4. The rebase may introduce minor rounding differences; your position value is substantially preserved across the rebase.

  5. Pre-IPO X-Perps may experience significantly higher short-term volatility than X-Perps on listed equities. Please assess your risk tolerance carefully.
