I've heard the term 'perpetual price' but I'm not sure what it means. Can someone explain to me what perpetual price refers to and how it applies in different contexts, especially in the realm of pricing models and subscriptions? What is perpetual price?

One of the most distinguishing features of perpetual futures is the absence of an expiration date.

This allows traders to hold their positions indefinitely, unlike traditional futures contracts which come with a fixed expiry date.
