      Singapore Exchange Launches Bitcoin and Ethereum Perpetual Contracts for U.S. Institutions

      The Singapore Exchange (SGX) has received authorization from the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) to offer Bitcoin and Ethereum perpetual contracts to U.S. institutional investors. This development allows U.S. participants direct access to SGX's trading system, which was previously unavailable to them. KC Lam, Head of Crypto Derivatives at SGX Group, highlighted that the trading volume for these contracts has reached $5.8 billion since their launch in late November 2025, averaging 1,300 lots per day as of August 2026.

      Bitcoin represents 66% of the open contracts and 83% of the average daily trading volume on SGX, with a notable single-day peak trading volume of 11,500 lots, equating to a notional value of $145 million. Lam noted that the integration of the FIS backend is complete, and SGX plans to assist U.S. clearing members in onboarding clients within the next couple of months.

      SGX's perpetual contracts differ from those on crypto-native platforms as they do not have an expiration date. Instead, they utilize a margin call and collateral top-up mechanism to manage risk, separating trading and clearing processes based on traditional futures market infrastructure. Notably, stablecoins are not accepted as collateral, and the contract benchmark index is a collaborative effort between SGX and CoinDesk Indices. Looking ahead, SGX aims to introduce Bitcoin and Ethereum futures and options.
