# Crypto Exchange Market Share Event Perpetual Futures

Welcome to Koo.xyz’s novel **Exchange Futures Market Share Perpetual Contracts** (`MS/USDC`). This innovative financial derivative abstracts the futures market share of major cryptocurrency exchanges into a linear perpetual contract.

By tracking the trailing 1-hour futures trading volume across major exchanges in real time, this contract calculates and reflects each exchange's market share percentage. Trading this contract allows investors to speculate on exchange growth, gauge market sentiment, or hedge against venue-specific risks.

### 1. Contract Specifications

| Specifications          | Details                                   | Notes                                                                     |
| ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Contract Type**       | Linear Perpetual Contract (USDC-Margined) | Follows standard crypto perpetual contract trading mechanics.             |
| **Settlement Currency** | USDC                                      | Margin, position PnL, and funding settlement are all denominated in USDC. |
| **Symbol Format**       | `{EXCHANGE}_MS/USDC`                      | e.g., `BYBIT_MS/USDC` (Bybit Market Share Perpetual).                     |
| **Quote Meaning**       | Price = Market Share (%) \*  100          | `10.00` = 10% market share. Bounded between `0.00` and `100.00`.          |
| **Tick Size**           | `0.01`                                    | Precise decimal quoting captures real-time market share shifts.           |
| **Max Leverage**        | Up to **50×**                             | High capital efficiency for market share speculation.                     |

### 2. Pricing & Index Mechanism

#### 2.1 Index Price Calculation

The Index Price reflects the target exchange's real-time market share based on trailing 1-hour futures trading volume:

$$\text{Index Price} = \frac{\text{Target Exchange Trailing 1h Volume}}{\sum \text{Weighted Exchanges Trailing 1h Volume}} \times 100$$, calculated every minute.

#### 2.2 Volume Sampling & API Rate-Limit Mitigation

Because cryptocurrency exchanges list hundreds of active contract pairs, attempting to query real-time volume across all listed contracts simultaneously often triggers exchange API rate limits. To ensure near real-time data streaming without hitting API restrictions, Koo.xyz utilizes an optimized sampling model:

* **Top 80% Daily Volume Sampling:** Every day, the platform generates a dynamic watchlist of contracts that accounted for the top 80% of the previous day's total futures volume for each exchange.
* **Lightweight Monitoring:** This daily-updated watchlist typically consists of only 10 to 20 high-volume contracts per exchange.
* **Near Real-Time Volume Streaming:** By fetching real-time volume data exclusively for this high-density subset, the platform reliably streams a precise estimation of near real-time exchange-wide trading volume.

#### 2.3 Anomaly Safeguards & Tracked Exchanges

* **Data Sources & Anomaly Safeguards:** If abnormal data is detected (e.g., sudden volume spikes or drops to zero due to API outages), the system automatically applies **EMA (Exponential Moving Average) smoothing** to prevent Index Price distortion and unnatural volatility.
* **Tracked Exchanges Pool:** Binance, OKX, Bybit, Bitget, Gate, KuCoin, HTX, Coinbase, Kraken, Deribit, BingX, Hyperliquid, Aster, Lighter, and edgeX.

#### 2.4 Mark Price

The Mark Price follows standard perpetual contract mechanics (incorporating Index Price + Basis Moving Average) to calculate unrealized PnL and trigger liquidations fairly.

### 3. PnL Calculation & Case Study

Since this product functions as a linear perpetual contract, PnL mechanics align with standard crypto derivatives:

* **Go Long (Buy):** Expect the target exchange's market share to increase.
* **Go Short (Sell):** Expect the target exchange's market share to decrease.

#### Case Study

Suppose you buy **10 contracts** of `BYBIT_MS/USDC` at an entry price of **8.00** (representing an 8.00% market share for Bybit) using **50× leverage**. Your initial margin requirement is **$1.60**.

After a period, Bybit’s futures market share rises to **10.00%**:

* **Long Position PnL:** Price rises from 8.00 to 10.00 (+25% market share increase). Profit = **+$2.00 / contract** (Total profit: +$20.00, pre-fees and funding).
* **Short Position PnL:** Loss = **-$2.00 / contract** (Total loss: -$20.00, pre-fees and funding).
