Moscow Exchange launches perpetual futures on five cryptocurrencies
- —Trading starts September 22, accessible only to qualified investors
- —Settlements in rubles based on the index, no cryptocurrency delivery
- —Over 72,000 investors and 600 billion rubles in volume since the first futures launch
- —Initially only BTC and ETH were planned, then the list will expand to ten assets
Why it matters: The expansion of the derivatives lineup gives Russian professional participants access to crypto exposure without buying the coins themselves.
