By: rootdata|2026/05/06 05:46:59

CME Group announced that it will launch cash-settled Bitcoin volatility futures, scheduled to go live on June 1 (pending regulatory approval). This product is based on the 30-day implied volatility index (BVX), allowing traders to trade or hedge risks on Bitcoin volatility without betting on price movements.

The new contract is expected to have the code BVI, with a contract multiplier of $500 × index value, aimed at providing the market with more refined risk management tools.
