UNITREE Debuts on edgeX Amid Humanoid Robot Hype and IPO Demand

UNITREE, the perpetual contract on edgeX linked to Unitree Robotics, began trading on the edgeX derivatives platform under a USDC pair. The Chinese company, specialized in humanoid and quadruped robots, combines in-house manufacturing, vertical component integration and a growing embedded intelligence program under the UnifoLM brand.

The launch responds to the high exposure for the company. In 2025, Unitree recorded revenues of 1.699 billion yuan and a gross margin in its core business of 60.13%. Its listing process on Shanghai’s STAR Market generated retail demand that exceeded 5,500 times the available supply, with an estimated valuation of $9 billion prior to its stock market debut, according to the Financial Times.

The perpetual does not grant shares, voting rights or any stake in the company. It is a narrative exposure instrument with leverage. To accompany the launch, edgeX launched a campaign active between August 11 and 18 that includes a 100% trading fee rebate, an incentive of up to 20 $EDGE for new users and a competitive prize pool of up to 10,000 USDC distributed among the top 30 by trading volume.
