Futures Contract

The world of cryptocurrencies is in constant upheaval, but certain developments draw particular attention due to their scale and implications. Indeed, open interest in futures contracts on Ethereum has just crossed an unprecedented threshold, surpassing 20 billion dollars. This record is indicative of a renewed interest in the asset, as well as a bullish movement that redefines the short-term outlook for one of the most influential cryptocurrencies.

Bitcoin is gaining more and more favor among institutional investors. Major names in the global finance industry are beginning to adapt their strategies to include the queen of cryptos. The Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), a global leader in futures exchanges, is also considering entering the bitcoin spot trading market. An initiative that could have profound repercussions for the crypto market.
