CME Group Announces Round-The-Clock Crypto Derivatives Trading Beginning May 29
CME Group, the world's largest derivatives marketplace, will introduce nearly 24/7 trading for its cryptocurrency futures and options starting May 29, pending regulatory approval. The new schedule on the CME Globex platform will include a brief weekend maintenance break. This move responds to record-high client demand for crypto risk management tools, with the exchange reporting $3 trillion in notional trading volume in 2025 alone. Year-to-date average daily volume surged 46% to 407,200 contracts. The extended hours will allow traders to manage exposure continuously amid market volatility, aligning regulated derivatives more closely with the crypto market's always-on nature.
