CME Eyes 24/7 Crypto Trading Boom—But Meme Coins Won’t Get a Seat at the Table

Wall Street's crypto FOMO just hit overdrive. The CME—the institutional darling of derivatives trading—is reportedly exploring round-the-clock digital asset markets, signaling a seismic shift in traditional finance's embrace of crypto.

No Joke: Meme Coins Need Not Apply

While expanding trading hours, the exchange drew a hard line against meme coin products. Apparently, even trillion-dollar institutions have standards—though some hedge funds might disagree after last cycle's DOGE-fueled yacht purchases.

The move comes as institutional crypto demand surges, with traders demanding access mirroring crypto's never-sleeping markets. One insider quipped, 'Traders want to lose money in all timezones now.'

This could pressure other legacy exchanges to follow suit—or risk getting left behind as digital assets rewrite finance's rulebook. Just don't expect Shiba Inu futures anytime soon.
