Solana Futures will be available via the CME group from March 17. The CME group has taken an important step which indicates the increase in institutional participation with soil.
Investors using term contracts on Solana under regulated markets can participate in soil price prediction activities. If traders do this, major investors will enter the market.
Solana Futures: What’s going on?
CME Group announced in a press release that Solana Futures Trading will have two distinct contractual choices:
- Micro-tail contracts (25 soil each)
- Larger contracts (500 soil each)
Merchants can engage without holding real soil chips because the contracts will be resolved in cash. Instead, the reference rate CF Solana-Dollar will follow the Solana prices movements to settle them. This launch is still awaiting regulatory approval. But if all goes well, Sol will officially join Bitcoin and Ethereum as one of the rare cryptocurrencies with term contracts on CME.
We are delighted to play a role in the upcoming launch of @Cmegroup Future soil, the first Solana derivatives regulated by CFTC. They will settle at our CME reference rate CF Solana-Dollar (Solusd_RR), paving the way to the listed soil ETF in the United States!
