CME Group plans to launch Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and Uniswap (UNI) futures on Oct. 19, expanding regulated derivatives access for two major crypto assets.
The proposed Bitcoin Cash futures would use standard contracts covering 250 BCH and micro contracts covering 25 BCH. Uniswap futures would be offered in standard contracts covering 10,000 UNI and micro contracts covering 1,000 UNI.
The launch would give market participants additional contract-size options for gaining derivatives exposure to BCH and UNI through CME Group’s regulated marketplace. The proposed products are scheduled to begin trading Oct. 19.
