Cboe Global Markets announced on Monday that it will launch US-regulated perpetual futures for Bitcoin and Ether on December 15, pending final regulatory review.
The products, called "Continuous Futures," will be listed on the Cboe Futures Exchange (CFE).
This move aims to bring perpetual instruments, which have long dominated offshore crypto platforms, to a transparent and broker-friendly US market.

Each contract will have a 10-year maturity and will use a daily cash settlement to maintain price alignment with the underlying cryptocurrencies, eliminating the need for traders to manually roll over expiring contracts.
The launch, initially scheduled for November 10, comes at a time when trading volumes for perpetual futures on global platforms have reached record highs.
