Moscow Exchange launches perpetual futures on five crypto indices (BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, TRX) for qualified investors; USD-quoted and RUB-settled, with auto-rollover and no crypto delivery. The Moscow Exchange introduced new perpetual futures tied to five cryptocurrency indices—Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, XRP, and TRX—available only to qualified investors. The contracts are structured as one-day futures with automatic daily settlement, allowing positions to roll over to the next day without reopening contracts. They are quoted in US dollars but settled in Russian rubles, and investors do not take delivery of any cryptocurrency. In addition to these new perpetual contracts, the exchange offers alternative contracts without expiry for the same assets. The move follows earlier launches of Bitcoin and Ethereum futures and expands the exchange's crypto-derivatives offerings by linking products to cryptocurrency indices rather than the coins themselves.
