[CME Launches XRP and SOL Futures Contracts Based on Spot Prices] CME Group today launched XRP and SOL futures contracts based on spot prices. These contracts complement the existing Bitcoin and Ethereum futures contracts and can be traded across markets with the four major U.S. stock index futures: the S&P 500 Index, Nasdaq-100 Index, Russell 2000 Index, and Dow Jones Industrial Average. Additionally, these contracts allow investors to trade futures positions under spot market terms and benefit from longer expiration periods, eliminating the need for frequent position rollovers.
