Cboe Unveils 10-Year Bitcoin and Ether Futures, Pending Regulatory Approval

Cboe Global Markets has announced plans to introduce Continuous Futures contracts for bitcoin and ether on its Cboe Futures Exchange (CFE). Trading is expected to begin Nov. 10, subject to regulatory approval.

The new instruments aim to deliver perpetual-style exposure to digital assets in a U.S.-regulated, centrally cleared environment. This will offer traders a more efficient way to manage long-term crypto strategies.

Unlike conventional futures that require periodic rolling, Cboe Continuous Futures will take the form of single contracts with 10-year expirations. They will be cash-settled and pegged to real-time spot prices through daily adjustments based on a transparent funding rate methodology. This design is intended to simplify position management while providing consistent exposure to the underlying assets.

Catherine Clay, Global Head of Derivatives at Cboe, highlighted the contracts as a bridge between traditional markets and digital assets.

Perpetual-style futures have gained strong adoption in offshore markets. Now, Cboe is bringing that same utility to our U.S.-regulated futures exchange. We expect Continuous Futures to appeal to not only institutional market participants, but also to a growing segment of retail traders seeking access to crypto derivatives.

The launch marks a significant step in Cboe’s digital asset product roadmap, expanding its futures suite beyond flagship offerings such as VIX futures and its existing crypto derivatives.
