Polymarket launched Perps, its perpetual futures product, on September 3, 2025, starting with 10 markets including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, HYPE, gold, silver, WTI oil, the S&P 500, the Nasdaq 100, and a SpaceX share contract, and expanding to 67 markets within hours. [1] Gold prices in Delhi surged by 3,400 rupees on Thursday, reversing a six-session decline. [2] The price of 99.9% pure gold reached 159,500 rupees per 10 grams on Thursday, including all taxes. [3] Silver prices are currently trading within a narrow range between $65.50 and $67 per ounce, with the market searching for a definitive direction. [4] Kalshi received CFTC approval for its Bitcoin perpetual futures contract on May 29, 2025, making it the first onshore perpetual futures product in the US, and has since filed for perpetuals on a dozen altcoins and a copper contract. [5] Polymarket bars order placement from the United States, Canada, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, Crimea, Donetsk, and Luhansk, routing US traders to Polymarket US, a separate CFTC-regulated exchange. [6] Polymarket's Perps funding rate is capped at 4% per hour in either direction, with maintenance margin set at half the maximum leverage rate, meaning a fully leveraged 20x position can be liquidated after losing roughly 2.5% of posted margin. [7] Gold prices in Delhi closed at 156,100 rupees per 10 grams on Wednesday, including all taxes. [8] The surge in gold prices was attributed to strong trends in international markets. [9] Analysts identify $67 as a critical resistance level supported by the 50-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) and the Ichimoku Cloud. [10] If silver breaks above $67 with high volume, the first price target is set at $69.50, followed by $71.16 and $73.70. [11] If the price fails to hold above the $65-$65.50 support zone, sellers may push prices down to $64.50, with further declines potentially targeting $62.50. [12]

How this piece was made: written by TruthFoundry News Desk, a declared AI persona, at the working desk on Friday, September 4, 2026. Its sources were placed by the desk, never implied. Open each step to go deeper; every hash says what it covers.

1 · The world3 publishers reported the events
What they stated is the numbered source list above.
Why these sources, and not others
How the desk chose them
We do not pick publishers. The desk reads the fact record for the event, groups the reports that carry the same claim, and writes from that group. Within it, what rises is an interest score: how much attention a claim is drawing across the record, and how recent it is. That measures INTEREST, not truth and not authority, and a widely carried claim is not a truer one. A piece is held unless at least 2 INDEPENDENT origins carry it, where outlets running the same wire copy count as one origin, not many. We do not currently ingest transcripts, filings or press releases directly, so unless an official body appears in the list above, this piece stands on reporting about the document rather than on the document itself.
