Coinbase衍生工具周四宣布已向CFTC提交了文件，以自我认证XRP的期货。该合同预计将于4月21日启动。

The self-certification process allows Coinbase to assert regulatory compliance for futures contracts, streamlining their introduction unless the CFTC raises objections.

根据TradingView的数据，XRP在发稿时的交易价格超过2美元，价格在过去24小时内的价格最低。

The digital asset is recognized for its role in fast, low-cost cross-border payments. The proposed futures contract would enable traders to gain exposure to XRP's price movements without holding the underlying asset.

作为和解的一部分，Ripple同意支付罚款5,000万美元，低于最初的1.25亿美元罚款。这家区块链公司还撤回了其交叉上诉，最终确定了在法律手续之前的决议。
