CFB Talks Digital Assets Episode 44: What's next for CME Group in crypto, after Bitcoin, Ether, Solana and XRP?


With a notional $1 trillion-plus in CME Group Bitcoin and Ether futures settled by CF Benchmarks indices since these contracts launched, our partnership is one of the most pivotal in crypto.

Meanwhile, after the Solana futures debut in March, and with the launch of XRP futures coming next week, the leading derivatives marketplace continues to play a critical and growing role in the evolution of the digital asset class.

It's why we're stoked to welcome Brian Burke, CFA, senior director overseeing crypto options at CME, as our extra special guest on the CFB Talks Digital Assets podcast!

Join us for an exclusive look inside crypto's biggest regulated marketplace, where both institutional and retail participation are accelerating.

A few of the many enlightening talking points:

  • 'Crypto VIX Futures'? - With global market volatility in the news, how close are we to CME Bitcoin volatility futures?
  • Quicker Roadmap - how increasing regulatory clarity, rising market maturity, and falling information asymmetry are driving a faster cadence of crypto derivative launches - and what to expect next
  • Solana Surprise - SOL futures volumes and open interest are outpacing expectations: what's behind the momentum?
  • 'Proto Perps' imminent - With smaller contract sizes and super-long dated expiries, how upcoming Spot Quoted Futures (SQF) can fill the retail gap even more - and why institutional players are interested too

Dive in now for a revealing conversation, on the oldest derivatives venue's enduring place in the newest asset class!
