CME集团的美国衍生品交易所首次交易的Solana（Sol）期货

Solana（Sol）期货在3月17日首次在芝加哥商业交易所（CME）集团的美国衍生品交易所交易

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.

周五，芝加哥商业交易所（CME）集团的美国衍生品交易所开始交易与Solana（Sol）有关的期货合约，这标志着加密货币与主流金融市场的集成中的一个重要里程碑。

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宣布了计划列出两种类型的SOL期货：标准合同，每份代表500 sol和零售友好的“微型”合同，每个合同代表25个SOL。这些合同将以现金而不是物理溶胶解决。

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.

尽管Coinbase的Exchange已于今年早些时候签订了期货合约，但期货是该期货中的第一个被列入美国主要交易所。他们还将作为美国证券交易委员会考虑资产经理的现场Solana ETF申请。

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数据显示，四月期货合约的第一批合同的价格为每索尔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.

他们说，周四，贸易公司Falconx和Stonex完成了CME上的第一个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.

总部位于Solana Swap Platform Titan的创始人Chris Chung在周五对Cointelegraph表示：“ Solana在过去五年中已经走了很长一段路。”

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

Chung说：“索拉纳期货今天将在CME上延续，而SOL（交易所交易的资金）肯定会在不久后落后。”

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.

周一，Chung表示，他预计SEC将批准资产经理Vaneck和Canary Capital的拟议现场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.

至少有五个ETF发行人已向美国证券交易委员会提交了列出现货Solana ETF。监管机构必须在2025年10月之前就文件做出最终决定。

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

根据彭博情报局的说法，最终有70％的索尔ETF有可能获得批准。

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.

期货合约是标准化协议，以在将来的日期购买或出售基础资产。它们通常用于零售和机构投资者的对冲和投机。期货对于现货加密货币ETF也起着至关重要的辅助作用，因为受管制的期货市场为衡量数字资产的绩效提供了稳定的基准。

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

CME已经列出了比特币BTC和Ether ETH的期货合约。去年，美国监管机构批准了这两种加密货币的ETF。
