Cboe Global Markets has announced plans to launch 10-year continuous futures for Bitcoin and Ethereum in U.S. markets on November 10, 2025, pending regulatory approval.
Launch Plan for 10-Year Futures
Cboe intends to introduce 10-year futures contracts for Bitcoin and Ethereum. The success of the launch on November 10, 2025, depends on obtaining necessary approvals from regulators.
Impact on Institutional Investments
This initiative could increase institutional participation, enhance market structure, and improve risk management in regulated crypto derivatives. The launch of futures is expected to open new opportunities for hedging and streamline trading strategies within a regulated framework.
Financial and Market Implications
The financial implications are significant, as contracts will be cash-settled to mitigate risks. This approach emphasizes compliance and strengthens the U.S. market as a secure venue for institutional investments in cryptocurrencies.
The launch of Cboe's futures could reshape the approach to managing long-term investments in cryptocurrencies, providing transparent pricing mechanisms and market stability, but the success of the initiative will depend on regulatory approvals and market adoption.
