A 100M-contract TradFi incumbent, a fast-growing prediction platform, and the federal regulator publicly sparred in a CFTC committee room. The bill will eventually land on retail traders.
The shift matters because CME hedge-fund positioning has historically leaned short as a basis-trade hedge; a genuine net-long flip signals directional conviction, not just arbitrage.
The 77 contracts (55 standard + 22 Micro) target retail traders already comfortable with leveraged derivatives via Robinhood-style apps, while regulators and rival exchanges race to define overnight…
The dispute is not about QBTC alone: CME argues that securities exchanges cannot list derivatives on commodities, and a ruling for CME could force every cash-settled crypto index product back through…
K33 flags average daily spot volume at $2.2B alongside dormant CME and perpetual futures open interest, a setup that amplifies the risk of outsized moves when positioning finally breaks.
Hyperliquid's oil-perp volume hit a $1.2B record on a Sunday while CME sat dark, and Energy Aspects says the long-standing Friday volatility discount in WTI options is narrowing as traders finally…
The product lands at a moment retail single-name leverage is migrating off broker margin and onto centrally cleared venues, with implications for both equity vol and crypto perp-style flows.
The suit tests whether perpetuals are futures or swaps under the Commodity Exchange Act, a ruling that decides whether the offshore leverage machine becomes a domestic product or stays gated behind…
The cost is the friction of two clearing systems that refuse to recognize each other's hedges, and it can flip direction: the same comparison produced a negative 4.77-point reading at the fifth…
Selig's rare on-the-record rebuke of a self-certification by a systemically important venue is the actual story: CME now faces a stay and a public record on how it uses its own rule-making shortcut.
The unusual suit argues Kalshi's Bitcoin perps are "swaps" under Dodd-Frank, not futures — and that the CFTC rubber-stamped the listing without doing the legal analysis.
The lawsuit argues perps should be swaps, not futures — and the legal read is that CME has both the procedural and substantive advantage heading into a likely injunction fight.
A regulator-favored derivatives giant is challenging whether a CFTC-regulated event-contract venue can quietly become a leveraged Bitcoin venue — the case will set the boundary between event…
The suit would hinge on Dodd-Frank's swap-vs-future line — and with CME stepping in, the fight stops being a CFTC-vs-predictiom-market story and becomes a battle over who gets to define the next…
The exchange argues the CFTC's decade-first nod to onshore perpetual contracts undercuts its own dominance in regulated US crypto derivatives — a turf fight with structural consequences for how…

The contracts track the CME CF Bitcoin Volatility Index and let institutions express a pure view on four-week BTC turbulence without picking a direction, broadening the regulated crypto hedging…
CME Group CEO Terry Duffy has issued a stark warning about the push to introduce perpetual futures contracts in US…
