CME Launches XRP Futures, Marking Major Milestone for Institutional Adoption

Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) just handed institutional investors the golden ticket they’ve been begging for—regulated XRP exposure. The move signals crypto’s creeping legitimacy in traditional finance circles, albeit two years behind the retail frenzy.

Why this matters: Institutions now get to play with Ripple’s embattled token without touching the underlying asset—perfect for risk officers who still think blockchain runs on Excel spreadsheets.

The irony? This ’milestone’ comes five years after XRP’s retail heyday. But hey, when Wall Street finally adopts your tech, you know it’s either mainstream or about to be co-opted beyond recognition.
