About Roxom
Roxom is a trading platform priced, margined, and settled in BTC, rather than a fiat-based exchange. Current live businesses include: (1) BTC-settled perpetual futures such as GOLD/BTC, USDT/BTC, and OIL/BTC; (2) One-Click Trade swaps, which let users buy or sell ETH, SOL, USDC, USDT, tokenized equities like STRC, and ETFs like SPY against BTC; (3) a Carry Trade structured product where users pledge BTC to borrow USD, Roxom buys Nasdaq-listed STRC on their behalf, collects monthly dividends, deducts borrowing costs, and pays the net spread in BTC, with repayment available in USDT anytime. The market pain point is that BTC holders want exposure to stocks, commodities, and ETFs without converting back to fiat, but traditional and crypto markets are fiat-denominated, forcing conversions and introducing FX and custody risks. Roxom's core narrative is a "Bitcoin-native capital market" that uses BTC as the unit of account on a neutral, internet-native financial layer. In the past six months (March to September 2026), publicly verifiable changes are limited: the official site still labels the Carry Trade as "coming soon" , while the verifiable live business remains the perpetuals, swaps, and the BTC-collateralized lending/equity product described in the docs . Note that this Roxom is unrelated to earlier projects of the same name.
Key Roxom developments in the past six months: On March 24, 2026, launched the first Oil-BTC perpetual contract, trading WTI crude with BTC margin, 10x leverage, 10 barrels per contract, removing the dollar intermediary . In June, launched the BLOC (Bitcoin Line of Credit): pledge BTC to borrow USDT, no term, no installments, no rehypothecation, up to 50% LTV, 7.25% APR, three-tier liquidation . Carry trades (borrow against BTC to buy STRC, earning ~2.25% net annual BTC yield) are now live via OTC for deposits of 0.5 BTC and above . Official future focus: continue building a Bitcoin-based global capital market, expanding BTC-denominated equities, commodities and crypto assets; plan on-chain verification for collateral; self-service Carry and smaller retail deposits to follow . Note BLOC is not available to US users .
