More Details
As with all quanto contracts, the AXS product will have a fixed Bitcoin multiplier regardless of the Tether/AXS price. This allows traders to long or short the AXS/USDT exchange rate without ever touching either AXS or USDT.
Traders post margin in XBT, and earn or lose XBT as the AXS/USDT rate changes. This quanto risk premium may be one of the factors which results in the AXSUSDT swap trading at a premium / discount to the AXSUSDT spot price – see our blog post explaining the same concept for ETHUSD.
