On 9th June 2025, Cboe Global Markets, Inc. (Cboe: CBOE) announced it has successfully migrated its Cboe Digital Exchange futures offerings onto Cboe Futures Exchange (CFE). With the Financially Settled Bitcoin (FBT) and Financially Settled Ether (FET) futures now listed on CFE, all of Cboe’s U.S. futures products will trade on one exchange. This consolidation adds to CFE’s tradable product suite and potentially provides customers with more seamless access and efficiencies.
The cash-settled FBT and FET futures – which initially launched on Cboe Digital Exchange in January 2024 – are based on the price of the respective Cboe Kaiko Rate Index. The futures will join CFE’s recently launched Cboe FTSE Bitcoin Index Futures, which are cash-settled futures based on the FTSE Bitcoin Reduced Value Index (ticker: XBTF). In addition, FBT and FET futures will be available to trade on a nearly 24×5 basis.
FBT and FET futures will continue to be centrally cleared through Cboe Clear U.S., a CFTC-regulated derivatives clearing organization. Significantly, this will establish a direct clearing relationship between CFE and Cboe Clear U.S., positioning Cboe to further grow its global clearing capabilities. All other U.S. futures listed on CFE will continue to clear through OCC.
Contract specifications and trading symbols for FBT and FET futures remain materially the same following the transfer to CFE. Notably, FBT and FET futures are available to trade nearly 24 hours a day, Monday through Friday.
