CME Group plans to launch Bitcoin Cash and Uniswap Futures on October 19
CME Group (CME) announced plans to launch Bitcoin Cash and Uniswap (UNI) futures contracts on October 19, a move that is subject to regulatory review. This move will expand CME Group's regulated cryptocurrency product line and provide market participants with more tools to manage altcoin exposure.
CME Group shares fell 0.17% to $275.53 in pre-market trading on Tuesday, before rising 0.17% to $276.00. As a derivatives operator, CME Group aims to further consolidate its position in the digital asset field by providing standardized risk management tools.
Bitcoin cash futures expand CME Group's crypto product matrix
CME Group will provide standard Bitcoin cash futures contracts representing 250 BCHs, as well as Micro contracts covering 25 BCHs each. These two contract sizes will provide traders with different ways to manage their Bitcoin cash exposure within the CME Group's regulated market framework.
CME Group has designed these products to meet the needs of market participants seeking flexible derivatives and relying on mature clearing, financing and round-the-clock trading infrastructure. The planned Bitcoin Cash launch will further expand its existing cryptocurrency suite, which currently includes Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Solana and a variety of other altcoins.
此外,CME集团还列出了卡尔达诺(Cardano)、链链接(Chainlink)、 Stellar、Avalanche和Sui的期货合约,这是继2026年多次产品添加后的最新进展。根据该公司最新数据,这些新推出的合约今年以来的名义价值合计已超过10亿美元。
在CME集团更广泛的期货和期权业务中,加密交易活动在第一半也保持了显著水平。平均每日成交量达到279,800份合约,其加密货币衍生品产品的名义价值约为83亿美元。同期,平均未平仓合约数为264,600份,相当于约154亿美元的名义风险敞口。
Uniswap期货提供受监管的UNI市场准入
CME集团将推出代表10,000枚UNI的标准Uniswap期货合约,而微型合约则代表1,000枚UNI。这种结构设计为寻求去中心化金融(DeFi)代币受监管风险敞口的参与者提供了大、小两种合约选择。CME集团预计,UNI合约将在其不断扩展的加密货币市场中支持风险管理、市场定位和投资组合策略。
As demand expands from Bitcoin and Ethereum to a wider range of areas, Uniswap will become part of a growing series of single-asset cryptocurrency futures by exchange operators. This release also reflects CME Group's strategy of continuing to enter altcoin derivatives after adding five new cryptocurrency futures in 2026. This expansion gives market participants more ways to hedge individual token exposure without having to rely entirely on unregulated offshore derivatives venues.
CME Group will list Bitcoin cash and Uniswap futures in accordance with CME rules, which are expected to be launched on October 19. As cryptocurrency derivatives gain a larger share of its global market, CME Group is continuing to expand its regulated digital asset offerings. CME Group's broader platform also covers interest rates, stocks, foreign exchange, energy, agriculture, metals, spot markets and clearing services.
