Bitcoin price discovery may shift to Chicago

XBTO Chief Commercial Officer stated that the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) offering uninterrupted derivatives trading services may accelerate the migration of institutions from traditional cryptocurrency exchanges. Crypto derivatives such as ETF-related options and futures trading volumes may rival or even surpass spot trading volumes. As derivatives activity expands on regulated platforms, the volatility pricing in the US market could have a greater impact on global bitcoin price setting. This will further consolidate the role of regulated futures markets in price discovery and expand their influence on the crypto ecosystem.
