The Strait of Hormuz market on perp.city is a perpetual futures contract on live maritime traffic through the strait - the world's most important oil chokepoint, carrying roughly a fifth of global seaborne crude between Iran and Oman. The index counts cargo ships and tankers within a 35-nautical-mile radius of the strait in real time, updated every 15 minutes from AIS transponder data.
Traders can go long or short on Hormuz shipping activity with leverage, settling in USDC on Arbitrum. When Gulf tensions trigger reroutes, convoys, or blockade fears, the vessel count moves - and the perpetual future lets you take a position on it directly, without touching oil futures or freight derivatives.
