CME Bitcoin Futures
Private investors can invest in Bitcoin (BTC) easily and very cost-effectively via Bitcoin futures. It is a regulated, exchange-listed financial instrument. This makes it much safer than buying cryptocurrencies directly. Bitcoin (BTC) futures are listed on the CME exchange. Based in Chicago, the CME is one of the largest exchanges in the world.

Tip: A tick is the smallest possible price movement. If the price is 100,000, the next price is 100,005 or 99,995.
Tip: The value of the tick corresponds to your profit or loss. If you bought a micro Bitcoin future at 100,000 and it rises to 100,005, your profit is 2.50 $.
