Wu said he learned that the world’s largest derivatives exchange, CME Group, has officially launched 24/7 crypto futures and options trading services, allowing market participants to continue trading regulated crypto derivatives during weekends and non-traditional trading hours. On the first weekend after the launch, more than 7,200 contracts were traded, with a notional value of approximately $50 million. CME said this move is intended to meet market demand for around-the-clock liquidity and risk management tools, further narrowing the gap between traditional financial markets and the 24/7 trading model of crypto assets. In addition, Bitcoin Volatility Futures also supports 24/7 trading.

Fifty million dollars in nominal value, compared to on-chain is still just a drop in the bucket.

Regulatory derivatives are available around the clock, and the information gap between retail investors and institutions has widened again.
