Delivery of pre-market futures for EIGEN crypto

1. Delivery time

Pre-market contracts will be delivered 3 hours after the crypto is listed on the spot market, and the delivery price will be calculated 2 - 3 hours after the listing. If the listing time changes, then the contract delivery time changes accordingly. Stay informed of any changes via our announcements.

2. Delivery price

  • Index price: OKX will include prices from more than 3 mainstream exchanges as part of the index components.

  • Delivery price: OKX will deliver futures contract positions at the arithmetic average price of the corresponding OKX index price timed at 1 hour prior to the delivery. If the traded price displays abnormalities in the hour preceding the delivery, OKX may adjust the final delivery price to a reasonable level for delivery.


Within the first 30 minutes after the delivery, if you hold positions greater than 10,000 USD in value in EIGENUSDT futures contracts at the time of delivery, you will be restricted from transferring assets out of your trading account.

Asset transfers will return to normal after 30 minutes. Order history and billing records will still be available after the delivery. If you need to backup your data, you may download it via Order center on OKX web.

Considering that the market may fluctuate sharply before delivery, please manage your risk level by reducing the actual leverage or closing positions in advance. In case of an overloss upon delivery, your losses will be reimbursed with the insurance fund. If the insurance fund is not enough, the system will automatically reduce positions of users with high profit rates.

3. Settlement fees

The settlement fee is 1%, subject to adjustment as announced.

4. Price limits

After pre-market contract generation:
Highest price of buy order = Average mid price of the past hour × (1 + 15%)
Lowest price of sell order = Average mid price of the past hour × (1 – 15%)

Within 60 minutes before delivery:
Highest price of buy order = Average mid price of the past hour × (1 + 5%)
Lowest price of sell order = Average mid price of the past hour × (1 – 5%)

Mid price = (Best bid price + Best ask price) / 2. Price limits are calculated every minute.
