DWF Labs: The perpetual contract market is expected to introduce significant new liquidity by 2026

TechFlow news, December 30 — DWF Labs posted on social media that perpetual contracts (Perps) will become a key metric for crypto market sentiment in 2026. Compared to spot trading, perpetuals compress market conviction into real-time signals, including funding rates, open interest, trade volume quality, liquidations, and position behavior.

DWF Labs also announced its $75 million DeFi fund will support infrastructure driving this momentum, covering perpetual contracts, money markets, and yield protocols that can scale with actual demand. The firm stated that the perpetual contracts market is poised to bring significant new liquidity by 2026.
