CME Addresses Rumors of XRP and Solana Futures After Website Error

The Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) has addressed speculation about potential futures contracts for XRP and Solana, clarifying that no decisions have been finalized.
The rumors arose after a draft webpage accidentally went live, suggesting these products might launch soon.
CME revealed that the page, part of its beta testing platform used for mock-ups, was mistakenly made public. A spokesperson emphasized that the appearance of this information was premature and that discussions about futures contracts for XRP and Solana are still ongoing, with no concrete plans yet in place.
The now-removed webpage, briefly visible on Wednesday, mentioned a possible launch date of February 10 for the two futures contracts, pending regulatory approval. Analysts Eric Balchunas and James Seyffart from Bloomberg confirmed the page’s existence before it was taken offline.
At present, CME offers a range of futures contracts for Bitcoin and Ethereum, available in both standard and micro sizes. While the accidental release fueled excitement over potential expansion into other crypto assets, the exchange has yet to announce any official plans.
