MyEtherWallet (MEW) Integrates Ondo Perps for 24/7 Up to 20x
MyEtherWallet (MEW) announced an integration with Ondo Perps to bring perpetual futures (no expiry) to its self-custody trading experience on MyEtherWallet.com.
With the MEW + Ondo Perps connection, users can trade long or short on leading U.S. stocks, ETFs and commodities around the clock (24/7), using continuous perpetual contracts instead of traditional market-hours execution. The release states leverage can reach up to 20x, enabling higher-risk, higher-liquidity strategies for onchain equities and RWA-linked exposure.
MEW positions the integration as “non-custodial risk management,” meaning users keep control of private keys while accessing derivatives through the MEW web interface. The product is designed to be compatible with many wallet setups via MEW Portfolio, including MEW wallet mobile, MetaMask (browser extensions), hardware wallets, and WalletConnect.
Access is straightforward: new users can create a wallet on MyEtherWallet.com to start trading immediately, while existing users can connect their preferred wallet to access Ondo Perps features.
The company also notes the product is not intended for U.S. citizens and that restrictions apply.
For traders, this is a new onchain route to equity/ETF/commodity perps with 24/7 execution and up to 20x leverage—features that could shift where liquidity concentrates during off-hours and may increase speculative activity around macro and stock-market catalysts.

Bullish
This is broadly bullish for trading activity because it expands access to high-liquidity, 24/7 leveraged derivatives tied to traditional market assets (U.S. stocks/ETFs/commodities). When self-custody wallets add perpetual futures with meaningful leverage (up to 20x), traders often respond by moving part of their positioning to the new venue—especially during off-hours—potentially increasing onchain volume and liquidity.
Short-term, the market impact is likely concentrated in derivatives flow: higher 24/7 execution can amplify speculation around macro headlines and earnings, and can raise volatility in the new perps where traders chase moves outside standard equity exchange hours. Medium-term, if MEW’s UX and wallet compatibility drive sustained user growth, it can strengthen adoption of onchain equities/RWAs narratives.
However, the “not intended for U.S. citizens” restriction can limit addressable demand compared with a fully global rollout, which is why the effect is likely more about venue-level flow than a direct, market-wide re-pricing. Similar past integrations of new trading endpoints for perpetual derivatives (wallet/venue additions) have typically led to localized liquidity shifts first, and then longer-tail growth if user acquisition holds.
