●
Cboe Global Markets will launch Bitcoin and Ether Continuous Futures contracts on November 10, 2025, pending regulatory approval, offering US investors long-term, regulated exposure to crypto with contracts lasting up to 10 years These products mimic offshore perpetual futures but operate under US regulation, using cash settlement and transparent funding rates, targeting both institutional and retail traders while supported by educational initiatives
Cboe Global Markets announced last Tuesday, September 9, that, pending regulatory approval, it will begin offering Continuous Futures contracts for Bitcoin and Ether on its futures exchange CFE, starting November 10, 2025. These new derivatives are intended to give US investors long-term exposure to cryptocurrencies in a more streamlined, regulated framework. Unlike traditional futures contracts, which often expire periodically and require the holder to “roll overˮ positions into new contracts, Cboeʼs Continuous Futures contracts are designed to have a 10-year expiration, meaning that traders can hold positions for much longer without frequent contract transitions. They will be cash-settled and tied closely to real-time spot market prices via daily cash adjustments, using a transparent funding-rate methodology.
