CME Group announced plans to launch XRP futures contracts on May 19, 2025, subject to regulatory approval. The derivatives platform will offer both micro (2,500 XRP) and standard-sized (50,000 XRP) contracts, continuing its expansion into digital asset derivatives after recent SOL futures and spot-quoted BTC/ETH products.

This development highlights increasing institutional interest in XRP’s underlying ledger technology. CME has been a pioneer in crypto derivatives, having previously introduced Bitcoin and Ethereum futures before expanding to altcoins. The XRP futures launch follows CME’s June 2025 roadmap for equity indices products.
