CME Group to launch micro Bitcoin futures in May
Institutional investors have been accessing Bitcoin via several means. CME is one of the first financial institutions to offer investors exposure to the leading cryptocurrency. The financial institutional has now gone a step further to introduce BTC futures designed for both institutional and retail traders.
Micro Bitcoin futures to launch on CME by May
The Chicago Mercantile Exchange announced yesterday that it would be launching a micro Bitcoin future by May. The futures would make it easier for institutional and retail traders to gain exposure to the leading cryptocurrency.In its blog post yesterday, CME stated that "At 1/10 the size of one bitcoin, Micro Bitcoin futures (MBT) provides an efficient, cost-effective new way to fine-tune bitcoin exposure and enhance your trading strategies. Enjoy the features of Bitcoin futures (BTC) in a smaller slice that enables traders of all sizes to manage bitcoin price risk."
The financial institution listed some of the benefits the micro BTC futures would offer to the investors. The futures allow you to trade on a regulated exchange and enjoy the price discovery of transparent futures. It also offers risk-management strategies to ensure that you limit the risks involved in trading the futures.
CME Group global head of Equity Index and Alternative Investment Products, Tim Court, highlighted his excitement with this latest development. In a press release, Court stated that "The introduction of Micro Bitcoin futures responds directly to demand for smaller-sized contracts from a broad array of clients and will offer even more choice and precision in how participants can trade regulated bitcoin futures in a transparent and efficient manner at CME Group."
Institutional investors increase interest in Bitcoin
The addition of more Bitcoin futures is a sign of increased institutional appetite in Bitcoin. The CME Bitcoin futures performed excellently in the second half of last year, rising to become the biggest bitcoin futures exchange as per open interest.CME stated that it the Micro Bitcoin futures will join the company's growing suite of cryptocurrency derivative. "The new contract will be cash-settled, based on the CME CF Bitcoin Reference Rate, which serves as a once-a-day reference rate of the U.S. dollar price of bitcoin. Micro Bitcoin futures will be listed on and subject to the rules of CME," the blog post concluded.
Institutional investors are finding more ways to gain access to the cryptocurrency market as they believe Bitcoin has become a very important global asset.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the success guarantee work?
If our approach to the market doesn’t beat the overall crypto market during your subscription, we’ll give you a full refund of your membership fee. No questions asked. For quarterly and monthly subscribers this is applicable once your subscription runs for 6 consecutive months.
