CME said its crypto futures and options averaged more than 242,000 contracts a day so far in 2026, or about $7.9 billion in notional value.
“With trading now underway in our Bitcoin Cash and Uniswap futures, we are providing clients with more versatility to manage cryptocurrency risk and exposure through our robust 24/7 marketplace,” said Giovanni Vicioso, CME Group’s global head of cryptocurrency products.
“Institutional demand is moving beyond the largest digital assets toward tokens with distinct use cases, like Bitcoin Cash in payments and Uniswap in decentralized finance,” said Griffin Sears, head of derivatives at FalconX.
GSR CEO Xin Song said the firm has “long believed that expanding institutional-grade derivatives will supercharge institutional adoption of digital assets.”
BCH traded around $279 at the time of writing, up about 2.3% over seven days, while UNI was near $7.37, down about 16% over 30 days, according to CoinMarketCap data.
