WOO X Launches Index Perpetual Contracts in Collaboration with Wintermute and GMCI
Cryptocurrency exchange WOO X has joined forces with market maker Wintermute and indices provider GMCI to introduce a range of index perpetual contracts tied to meme coins, the top 30 cryptocurrencies, and layer 2 tokens. This strategic partnership aims to offer traders diversified exposure to the market and simplify investment decisions.

WOO X is now rolling out a series of innovative products. Traders will gain access to GMCI's MEME index, encompassing popular meme coins like SHIB, PEPE, and DOGE. Additionally, the L2 index will track scaling tokens such as MATIC, IMX, and OP.

Indices have proven to be highly popular instruments in traditional finance, enabling traders to gain exposure to the overall market. Similar to offerings like the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, S&P Futures, or Nasdaq Futures, WOO X's new products provide investors with diversified exposure to specific sectors within the crypto space.

WOO X secured a $9 million funding round in January, which included participation from Wintermute and Amber. To further enhance the platform, WOO X plans to introduce a copy trading option, allowing users to replicate the strategies of successful traders. Additionally, the exchange will soon offer on-chain U.S. Treasury Bills, expanding its range of investment opportunities.

Willy Chuang, Chief Operating Officer of WOO X, highlighted the challenges retail traders face in keeping up with the rapidly evolving cryptocurrency landscape, ranging from AI projects to meme coins and layer 2 solutions. By providing investment options based on different sectors, WOO X aims to mitigate the risks associated with exposure to individual assets in volatile market conditions. Chuang believes that this approach, combined with the forthcoming copy trading feature, will foster adoption and increase awareness among traditional market participants.
