Freeport Markets

This is the feature that separates Freeport from a standard exchange. You can trade contracts tied to the implied valuation of private companies such as Anthropic, Neuralink, Kalshi and Polymarket. Two routes exist: perpetual futures, which track a valuation through oracle rules, and SPV-backed instruments, which give economic exposure through an investment vehicle. Neither gives you actual shares. That distinction is worth repeating before you deposit anything.

Freeport pulls market news from sources you follow and turns them into ideas, rather than making you scan a dozen feeds yourself. The idea is that your information and your trading live in one screen, so there's less lag between reading something and acting on it. It's a genuine convenience if your process is already news-driven. If you trade purely on charts, this won't do much for you.

Stocks, crypto, commodities, rates and FX all sit in the same place. You can go long or short on Bitcoin, the S&P 500, gold, crude oil or EUR/USD without opening accounts at different venues. One login covers all of it. For someone who wants a broad view without juggling accounts, that's a real reduction in friction.

The platform lets you control a larger position than your margin would normally buy. Put down $100 at 5x and you're working with $500 of exposure. The maximum varies by market and tops out at 50x. It cuts both ways: losses multiply too, and a position can be liquidated if your margin gets too thin. Perpetual futures have no expiry, so a trade stays open until you close it or get liquidated.

Freeport runs around the clock, including weekends. That's unusual if you're used to stock market hours. Core trading doesn't require know-your-customer checks, but the bank and card partners that handle fiat funding may still verify your identity, and availability depends on where you live. It's a lighter onboarding path than a traditional brokerage. Can you really trade stocks 24/7? Here, yes. Most venues close on Friday afternoon; this one doesn't.

Funds go into a self-custody wallet rather than sitting with a custodian. You deposit supported crypto and trade from there. This suits users who care about holding their own keys. It also means the usual self-custody responsibilities apply: lose access and there's no support desk to restore it.
