Cboe to launch continuous BTC and ETH futures Dec 15
Products aim to offer 24/7 crypto exposure
Signals growing institutional demand for regulated crypto
Cboe Expands Crypto Access With New Futures
The Cboe Futures Exchange (CFE) has announced it will launch continuous Bitcoin and Ether futures on December 15, 2025, further strengthening its crypto product offerings. This move is seen as a major development for institutional traders seeking round-the-clock exposure to digital assets under a regulated U.S. framework.
These new futures contracts will allow market participants to trade BTC and ETH continuously, better reflecting the 24/7 nature of the crypto markets—something traditional futures markets have struggled to accommodate.
What Are Continuous Futures?
Unlike traditional futures that expire on a set date, continuous futures are perpetual-style contracts that roll automatically, offering a smoother and more flexible trading experience.
By mimicking how crypto is traded on platforms like Binance or Coinbase, Cboe is bringing institutional familiarity and compliance to a product that aligns with the non-stop global crypto trading cycle.
Cboe’s move is also expected to enhance price discovery, boost liquidity, and give professional traders more tools to hedge or gain exposure without relying on unregulated exchanges.

Institutional Demand for Regulated Crypto Grows
This launch comes amid growing interest from traditional finance in digital assets. With increasing spot ETF inflows, rising institutional adoption, and greater regulatory clarity, established players like Cboe are stepping in to fill the demand for trusted and regulated crypto derivatives.
The addition of Bitcoin and Ether continuous futures could serve as a catalyst for greater trading volume on U.S. venues and may inspire similar moves from competitors like CME or Nasdaq.
As Cboe prepares for the December 15 launch, all eyes will be on how this new offering shapes the evolving landscape of institutional crypto trading.
