Cboe Aims to Simplify Crypto Trading with 10-Year Futures

Cboe Global Markets is solving a key complexity for crypto traders by introducing continuous futures for Bitcoin and Ether. The exchange announced the new products will launch on November 10.

The primary advantage of these futures is their simplified structure. Unlike traditional quarterly futures that expire and require rolling, these are set up as single contracts that can extend for up to a decade, making long-term position management significantly easier.

“Now, Cboe is bringing that same utility to our US-regulated futures exchange and enabling US traders to access these products with confidence,” said Catherine Clay, Cboe’s Global Head of Derivatives.

The cash-settled contracts will use a transparent funding rate to align with spot prices. This marks a strategic return to crypto derivatives for Cboe, which pioneered then paused Bitcoin futures in 2017.
