DeepSigma has launched a demo platform for trading perpetual futures on 77 markets, including US equities, indexes, commodities, and Treasury yields. The project is built on the Cypherium blockchain and aims to integrate traditional financial market structures with decentralized, non-custodial infrastructure.

The platform allows users to gain long or short exposure to real-world assets without tokenizing or holding the underlying assets. Contracts rely on external price data, and the system is designed to comply with US regulatory frameworks from its inception.

The development team includes professionals with backgrounds at Goldman Sachs, Citadel Securities, Google, and Uber. Key leadership includes CEO Sky Guo, CFO Albert Xu, CTO Chaoran Wang, and chief quant director Jenny Chen.

Technical features include perpetual contracts with no expiration dates, an order book, and funding rates. The platform supports cross-chain collateral, such as USDC from Ethereum and Solana, and incorporates risk management tools like position limits and automatic deleveraging.

DeepSigma is also developing an AI-powered market analysis desk and a natural-language assistant. These tools are intended to provide insights on macroeconomic events and interest rates without executing trades or accessing user assets.
