What is the CME Bitcoin futures contract?

CME Bitcoin

A long means…

Exposure to a rise in bitcoin via the CME future, settled in dollars — no delivery of bitcoins.

What is this?

CME bitcoin is a future on the dollar price of bitcoin. It settles to the CME CF Bitcoin Reference Rate: the daily dollar price of one bitcoin as of 4 p.m. London, built from major spot-exchange trades over a one-hour window — a volume-weighted median. No bitcoins change hands, and no wallet is required. It is not an ETF, and not a crypto-exchange perpetual.

Managers and funds take listed bitcoin exposure here, or hedge a direct price exposure. Settlement is a dollar payment: nothing is delivered.

Pitfalls

  • Not a spot ETF and not an exchange perpetual: this is CME BTC, CFTC 133741.
  • Do not add micro Bitcoin (MBT) into this line.
  • TFF grid (Asset Managers / Leveraged Funds / Dealers), not Managed Money.
