Major exchange Cboe announced that it will offer a new investment vehicle for Bitcoin and Ethereum. These products, called perpetual futures contracts, are scheduled to launch on December 15, 2025. These contracts will be valid for a full 10 years and automatically updated daily in cash. This will allow investors to be exposed to price movements for extended periods without having to regularly renew their positions. This new system is considered particularly important for large investors, as previously similar contracts were typically held on overseas platforms with limited oversight. Cboe, however, states that it will offer these products in a fully government-supervised, transparent, and secure environment. All transactions will be conducted through a government-controlled official clearinghouse. This aims to reduce potential conflicts between parties and ensure a safer investment process.
