The Chicago Mercantile Exchange plans to launch futures contracts for Avalanche and Sui

On April 7, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME Group) announced plans to launch futures contracts for Avalanche and Sui, pending regulatory review.

The contracts will offer both standard and micro specifications, aimed at providing traders with capital efficiency and strategic flexibility. Micro contracts typically have lower margin requirements, helping to enhance accessibility for retail and institutional participants. This move further expands the existing cryptocurrency derivatives product line at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, which currently includes futures for Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and XRP, reflecting the exchange's ongoing strategy to deepen its digital asset derivatives offerings.
