Question 1

What is XPL on Polymarket?

Accepted Answer

XPL is a perpetual futures contract on Polymarket that tracks the price of Plasma (XPL). It lets you go long or short on XPL using pUSD as collateral, with no expiry date, so you can hold your position as long as you want. Right now, XPL is trading at $0.05, down 1.19% in the last 24 hours.

Question 2

What leverage is available for XPL perpetuals?

Accepted Answer

You can trade XPL with up to 10x leverage on Polymarket. The default margin mode is Isolated. For example, with 10x leverage and a $1,000 position, you're controlling $10,000.00 worth of XPL. Higher leverage amplifies both gains and losses, and at current settings, a 10x long position would have a liquidation price around $0.05.

Question 3

How is the XPL price determined?

Accepted Answer

XPL uses two prices. The oracle price (0.049925) reflects Plasma's real-time spot price from external data feeds. The mark price (0.049924) is Polymarket's calculated fair value used for P&L and liquidations. Right now, the spread between mark and oracle is just $0.00 (0.00%), which means the contract is tracking XPL's spot price very closely. A funding rate of 0.0013% is applied every funding cycle to keep these prices aligned.

Question 4

Can I short Plasma on Polymarket?

Accepted Answer

Yes. On the XPL trading page, select Short at the top of the order panel, set your amount and leverage (up to 10x), and hit Trade. You'll profit when XPL's price drops.

Question 5

What is the trading volume and liquidity for XPL?

What is the funding rate for XPL and when does it reset?

Accepted Answer

The current funding rate for XPL is 0.0013%, resetting in the next funding cycle. A positive funding rate (like 0.0013%) means long positions pay short positions, and this indicates slightly more demand on the long side right now. Funding rates are dynamic and update each cycle, so check this page for the latest rate.

Question 7

What do "Mark price" and "Oracle price" mean for XPL?

Accepted Answer

The mark price (0.049924) is Polymarket's calculated price used to determine your unrealized P&L and liquidation thresholds, and it's what matters for your position. The oracle price (0.049925) is the external reference price pulled from real-time Plasma spot price data. When these two are close (currently within 0.00%), it means the market is efficiently priced with minimal premium or discount.

Question 8

What other perpetual futures can I trade on Polymarket?

Accepted Answer

Beyond XPL, Polymarket offers perpetuals on other popular Crypto assets including BTC, ETH, and SOL. Each contract works the same way: pUSD-settled, no expiry, with leverage up to 10x.

Question 9

What margin types are available for Polymarket perpetuals?

Accepted Answer

Polymarket perpetuals supports both Cross Margin and Isolated Margin. Cross Margin shares collateral across all open positions, which can help prevent liquidation, but may put more of your balance at risk. Isolated Margin assigns collateral to each position individually, so only the funds allocated to that position are at risk of liquidation.
