CME Group Launches 24/7 Crypto Futures Trading, Offering Increased Flexibility

CME Group, a major player in financial markets, is launching continuous trading for its cryptocurrency futures and options. This move comes as the crypto market continues to attract increased investor interest, with CME observing significant growth in this area – notional open interest has surged to $39 billion, and daily volume has jumped 230% year-over-year. This shift towards around-the-clock trading is driven by client demand for more flexible options.
