The CME Group will offer 24/7 trading for crypto futures and options starting May 29, providing continuous access to regulated U.S. crypto markets. The move follows demand for around-the-clock crypto trading, already offered by exchanges such as Binance Futures, Coinbase Derivatives, and other crypto-native venues. CME first announced the expansion last year, with Tim McCourt, CME’s global head of equities, noting that “not all markets lend themselves to operating 24/7.”

Avalanche and Sui Futures Added

CME will launch Avalanche (AVAX) and Sui (SUI) futures, including standard and micro contracts. Traders can access 5,000 AVAX or 500 AVAX and 50,000 SUI or 5,000 SUI contracts. Giovanni Vicioso, CME Global Head of Cryptocurrency Products, said the new offerings provide “greater choice, enhanced flexibility and more capital efficiencies across our deeply liquid, regulated crypto derivatives complex.”

Market Reach and Institutional Adoption

CME’s crypto suite now covers over 75% of total crypto market capitalization, including BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, ADA, LINK, and XLM, with average daily open interest reaching $25 billion in 2025. CME entered crypto with Bitcoin futures in 2017 and Ether futures in 2021. The 24/7 expansion positions CME alongside crypto-native exchanges and reflects broader interest in regulated digital assets.
