CME Group to launch Bitcoin Cash and Uniswap futures Oct. 19

CME Group, the world's largest derivatives marketplace, will launch Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and Uniswap (UNI) futures on October 19, pending regulatory review. The contracts expand CME's single-asset crypto derivatives suite, which already includes bitcoin, ether and other digital-asset futures, and are expected to come in both standard and micro sizes.

The launch adds regulated, exchange-listed exposure to two more crypto assets for institutional and retail investors, alongside CME's continued push into crypto derivatives. The listing date remains subject to regulatory review before trading begins.
