USDⓈ-Margined Perpetual Futures Contracts on Binance Futures are not inverse contracts. Instead, they are linear futures products that are quoted and settled in USDT or USDC - stablecoins pegged to the value of the U.S. dollar.
One of the key benefits of USD-settled contracts is that you can easily calculate your returns in fiat. This makes USDⓈ-margined contracts more intuitive. For example, when you make 500 USDT in profit, you can easily estimate that the profit is worth approximately $500 - since the value of 1 USDT is pegged closely to 1 USD.
