CBOE is considering converting Bitcoin and Ethereum continuous futures into perpetual futures

Rob Hocking, the Global Head of Derivatives at the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE), stated that the exchange is exploring the conversion of Bitcoin and Ethereum continuous futures into perpetual futures. Previously, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) approved the cryptocurrency perpetual futures of the prediction market Kalshi, paving the way for similar products for other registered U.S. exchanges. Rob Hocking did not provide a timeline for the potential conversion.
