Market action shows the remittance-based token is up by more than a fifth this week CME has been laying the groundwork for XRP pricing indices. At the time, Brad Garlinghouse, the CEO of Ripple, called it “the first step toward institutional crypto products. Classic Brad is always considering the long haul. CME isn’t even the first to offer American traders regulated XRP futures. First came Binomial. CME’s significant presence in traditional finance makes its entry a much bigger deal.

We all knew what was happening, so they quickly attempted to justify it as “just a test mock-up,” but come on. After introducing their Solana futures product recently, CME finally came clean in April and declared they would launch XRP futures.
