Crypto exchange Kraken is taking a major step toward bridging traditional and digital finance by expanding access to CME Group’s derivatives products, including equity indices, energy, metals, and foreign exchange (FX) contracts.
Through its regulated U.S. futures division, Kraken Derivatives US, traders will now be able to directly access CME’s global futures marketplace – the largest and most established derivatives exchange in the world.
This integration effectively connects crypto-native investors with traditional market instruments, broadening Kraken’s role beyond digital assets and into mainstream financial trading.
The move signals a deeper convergence between crypto platforms and traditional finance, giving Kraken’s users the ability to diversify exposure across asset classes while maintaining on-chain accessibility.
It also reflects Kraken’s long-term goal of becoming a full-spectrum trading hub, integrating both blockchain-based and institutional-grade products under one ecosystem.
Kraken’s expansion into traditional derivatives marks another milestone for the exchange, reinforcing its commitment to innovation and multi-asset access in a rapidly evolving financial landscape.
