The upcoming launch, scheduled for Thursday this week, will allow users to leverage Horizon Futures’ robust features to trade XRP, ADA, and LINK with competitive advantages. This includes access to low fees, a user-friendly interface, and the ability to leverage positions up to 27.5 times.
Horizon Protocol emphasizes the importance of community involvement and acknowledges the valuable role its users played in the approval of HIP-16. This collaborative approach underscores Horizon’s commitment to fostering a thriving DeFi derivatives ecosystem.
Strategic Listings Bolster DeFi Offerings
Horizon Protocol views the listing of XRP, ADA, and LINK as a strategic move to bolster its existing suite of offerings and cater to a wider range of investors. These cryptocurrencies, all boasting an established market presence and strong communities, represent a valuable addition to the Horizon Futures platform.
Their inclusion aligns perfectly with Horizon’s vision of enriching users’ trading strategies and providing them with the tools they need to navigate the dynamic DeFi landscape.
To ensure a seamless integration process, Horizon Protocol will implement necessary system adjustments to accommodate XRP, ADA, and LINK on Horizon Futures. The team will also closely monitor the performance of these newly listed assets to inform future enhancements and potential additions to the platform.
Building on a Strong Foundation
Horizon Protocol’s core functionality is built upon a peer-to-peer (P2P) model, empowering DeFi traders with several key advantages. This innovative approach facilitates low fees, deep liquidity, and zero slippage when trading synthetic assets not restricted by geographical borders.
Through Horizon Futures, users access a comprehensive suite of financial instruments, including swaps and perpetual futures contracts. These contracts are not limited to cryptocurrencies, but extend to real-world assets (RWAs) such as fiat currencies and commodities, providing a versatile trading experience.

The listing of XRP, ADA, and LINK comes on the heels of another significant milestone for Horizon Protocol. In late June, the platform successfully integrated Solana (SOL) following the approval of HIP-15. This move, driven by the high demand for SOL, is expected to position the synthetic asset zSOL as one of the top four on Horizon’s spot exchange.
Horizon Protocol’s latest developments solidify its position as a frontrunner in the ever-evolving DeFi derivatives market. As Horizon Protocol prioritizes community involvement and strategic expansion, DeFi enthusiasts can look forward to a future filled with innovative solutions and boundless opportunities.
