The Moscow Exchange is set to introduce a new cryptocurrency index and corresponding futures contracts based on Solana, Ripple, and Tron prices by 2026. According to PANews, Maria Silkina, head of the exchange's derivatives department, stated that these new contracts will follow the design of the existing Bitcoin and Ethereum index futures, utilizing a monthly expiration cash settlement method. Additionally, the exchange is considering launching perpetual futures for Bitcoin and Ethereum, which would be designed to expire daily and automatically roll over. Under current Russian regulations, these crypto derivatives are currently available only to qualified investors.
