XRP期貨首次在CME集團的美國衍生品交易所交易

XRP期貨於5月19日首次在芝加哥商業交易所（CME）集團的美國衍生品交易所交易，提供

The Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) Group’s US derivatives exchange began trading in futures tied to the cryptocurrency XRP on Friday, providing market participants with new tools to hedge risk and gain exposure to the token’s price movements as the Ripple-linked coin’s mainstream adoption continues.

芝加哥商業交易所（CME）集團的美國衍生品交易所於週五開始與加密貨幣XRP相關的期貨進行交易，為市場參與者提供對沖風險的新工具，並隨著瑞波鏈接互聯Coin Coin的主流採用的持續而接觸代幣的價格變動。

The futures, which are settled in cash and not physical XRP, are linked to two types of contracts. The first is a micro contract, which is equal to 2,500 XRP, while the second is a standard contract, which is linked to 50,000 XRP.

以現金而不是物理XRP解決的期貨與兩種合同有關。第一個是微型合同，等於2,500 XRP，而第二個是標準合同，與50,000 XRP有關。

The new futures come after Coinbase launched XRP and nano XRP futures contracts on its own derivatives exchange in April. They are also the second regulated XRP futures to hit the US market.

在Coinbase於4月在其自身的衍生品交易所上發布了XRP和Nano XRP期貨合約之後，新的期貨才出現。它們也是第二次受到美國市場市場的監管期貨。

The first day of trading saw 4 standard contracts, which add up to around $480,000 in notional volume at an average price of $2.40, change hands on the exchange, according to CME data. The majority of activity came from 106 micro contracts, which account for over $1 million in day one trading volume.

根據CME數據，交易的第一天達到了4份標準合同，其名義量的平均價格總計約480,000美元，價格為2.40美元，這是CME Data的數據。大多數活動來自106個微型合同，在第一天的交易量中佔超過100萬美元。

“The launch of regulated XRP Futures on @CMEGroup marks a key institutional milestone for XRP,” said Brad Garlinghouse, CEO of Ripple, via X post on Monday, adding that Hidden Road executed the first block trade.

Ripple首席執行官Brad Garlinghouse週一在周一通過X Post的首席執行官Brad Garlinghouse說：“ @Cmegroup上受監管的XRP期貨標誌著XRP的關鍵機構里程碑。”

CME already lists futures contracts for Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). US regulators approved exchange-traded funds for both of those cryptocurrencies last year.

CME已經列出了比特幣（BTC）和以太坊（ETH）的期貨合約。美國監管機構去年批准了這兩種加密貨幣的交易所交易資金。

The rollout of XRP futures on CME comes after efforts by the two parties to settle the SEC's protracted lawsuit against Ripple hit a wall in court.

在CME上的XRP期貨的推出是在兩黨努力解決SEC對Ripple的曠日持久訴訟的努力之後。

As ZyCrypto covered last week, Judge Analisa Torres denied a joint request by the two parties to approve a settlement that would have seen the regulator's claims against the crypto firm be fully released in exchange for a $50 million payment from Ripple. The ruling keeps Ripple's legal woes alive and adds uncertainty over the timeline for spot XRP ETF approvals.

正如Zycrypto上週報導的那樣，Analisa Torres法官否認雙方的共同要求批准了一項和解協議，該協議本來可以完全發布監管機構對加密貨幣公司的索賠，以換取從Ripple支付5000萬美元的款項。該裁決使Ripple的法律困境保持活力，並增加了對SPOT XRP ETF批准的時間表的不確定性。

The prototypes for the new futures contracts were announced in March and are part of a broader move by CME to expand its offerings in crypto assets.

新期貨合約的原型於3月宣布，是CME在加密資產中擴大其產品的更廣泛舉措的一部分。

Earlier this year, CME Group also launched futures contracts for Cardano and Solana, further expanding its institutional-grade crypto derivatives products beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum.

今年早些時候，CME集團還為Cardano和Solana簽訂了期貨合約，進一步擴大了其機構級加密衍生品產品，而不是比特幣和以太坊。
