SPCX as Supported Collateral

Stocks held on Backpack are real US equities, with each holding representing a security entitlement to the underlying shares.

Backpack now supports SPCX as collateral within its unified, cross-asset portfolio margin.

Users can:

  • Trade perpetual futures using eligible SPCX holdings as collateral
  • Borrow USD against their SPCX holdings
  • Trade spot on margin against their SPCX holdings

This brings SPCX into the same portfolio-margin system already used across other supported assets and instruments on Backpack.
