CME集團的美國衍生品交易所首次交易的Solana（Sol）期貨

Solana（Sol）期貨在3月17日首次在芝加哥商業交易所（CME）集團的美國衍生品交易所交易

The Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) Group’s US derivatives exchange began trading in futures contracts linked to Solana (SOL) on Friday, marking a significant milestone in the cryptocurrency’s integration into mainstream financial markets.

週五，芝加哥商業交易所（CME）集團的美國衍生品交易所開始交易與Solana（Sol）有關的期貨合約，這標誌著加密貨幣與主流金融市場的集成中的一個重要里程碑。

CME announced plans to list two types of SOL futures: standard contracts, each representing 500 SOL, and retail-friendly “micro” contracts, each representing 25 SOL. These contracts will be settled in cash, not physical SOL.

CME宣布了計劃列出兩種類型的SOL期貨：標準合同，每份代表500 sol和零售友好的“微型”合同，每個合同代表25個SOL。這些合同將以現金而不是物理溶膠解決。

The futures are the first of their kind to be listed on a major US exchange, although Coinbase’s exchange had launched futures contracts earlier this year. They are also being launched as the US Securities and Exchange Commission considers applications for spot Solana ETFs from asset managers.

儘管Coinbase的Exchange已於今年早些時候簽訂了期貨合約，但期貨是該期貨中的第一個被列入美國主要交易所。他們還將作為美國證券交易委員會考慮資產經理的現場Solana ETF申請。

The first batches of the April futures contracts traded at a price of $127 per SOL — $2 less than March-expiring contracts, CME data shows.

CME數據顯示，四月期貨合約的第一批合同的價格為每索爾127美元，比3月份的合同低2美元。

On Thursday, trading firms FalconX and StoneX completed the first-ever SOL futures trades on CME, they said.

他們說，週四，貿易公司Falconx和Stonex完成了CME上的第一個Sol Futures Futures交易。

“Solana has come a long way in the last five years,” Chris Chung, founder of Solana-based swap platform Titan, told Cointelegraph on Friday.

總部位於Solana Swap Platform Titan的創始人Chris Chung在周五對Cointelegraph表示：“ Solana在過去五年中已經走了很長一段路。”

“Solana futures are going live on the CME today, and SOL [exchange-traded funds] will surely follow shortly behind,” Chung said.

Chung說：“索拉納期貨今天將在CME上延續，而SOL（交易所交易的資金）肯定會在不久後落後。”

On Monday, Chung said he expects the SEC to approve asset managers VanEck and Canary Capital’s proposed spot Solana ETFs as soon as May.

週一，Chung表示，他預計SEC將批准資產經理Vaneck和Canary Capital的擬議現場Solana ETF。

At least five ETF issuers have filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission to list spot Solana ETFs. The regulator has until October 2025 to make a final decision on the filings.

至少有五個ETF發行人已向美國證券交易委員會提交了列出現貨Solana ETF。監管機構必須在2025年10月之前就文件做出最終決定。

According to Bloomberg Intelligence, there is a 70% chance that SOL ETFs will ultimately be approved.

根據彭博情報局的說法，最終有70％的索爾ETF有可能獲得批准。

Futures contracts are standardized agreements to buy or sell an underlying asset at a future date. They are commonly used for hedging and speculation by retail and institutional investors. Futures also play a crucial supporting role for spot cryptocurrency ETFs because regulated futures markets provide a stable benchmark for measuring a digital asset’s performance.

期貨合約是標準化協議，以在將來的日期購買或出售基礎資產。它們通常用於零售和機構投資者的對沖和投機。期貨對於現貨加密貨幣ETF也起著至關重要的輔助作用，因為受管制的期貨市場為衡量數字資產的績效提供了穩定的基準。

CME already lists futures contracts for Bitcoin BTC and Ether ETH. US regulators approved ETFs for both of those cryptocurrencies last year.

CME已經列出了比特幣BTC和Ether ETH的期貨合約。去年，美國監管機構批准了這兩種加密貨幣的ETF。
