Why the Chicago Mercantile Exchange will remain the home of crypto for traditional finance investors
Despite the approval of a Bitcoin spot ETF, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) is still expected to remain the top choice for traditional finance investors. The CME has seen a significant increase in Bitcoin futures trading over the past year, surpassing even Binance. While the launch of a spot ETF may bring institutional money into the sector, it is unlikely to reduce activity in the futures market. In fact, futures trading is expected to expand alongside the growth of spot ETFs, as institutional investors will likely use futures to hedge their positions. The futures market also benefits from clearer regulation compared to the regulatory ambiguity surrounding the crypto spot market.
