CME Ethereum Futures
Private investors can invest in Ethereum (ETH) easily and very cost-effectively via Ethereum futures. These are regulated, listed financial instruments, making them much safer than buying cryptocurrencies directly. Ethereum futures are listed on the CME exchange. Based in Chicago, the CME is one of the world's leading exchanges.

Tip: Profits or losses are simply settled in cash. This means you will never receive Ethereum and will never have to deliver Ethereum.
Tip: A tick is the smallest possible price movement. If the price is 3,000, the next price is 3,000.5 or 2,999.5.
Tip: The value of the tick corresponds to your profit or loss. If you bought a micro Ethereum future at 3,000 and it rises to 3,010, your profit is 1,00 $.
| What is the price based on? |
| The price is based on the CME CF Ether-Dollar Reference Rate (ETHUSD_RR). The ETHUSD_RR is a reference price calculated based on the prices of the largest crypto exchanges. |
| Can I invest small amounts? |
| Yes. The Micro Ethereum Future has a value of 1/20 of an Ethereum coin. You can also buy these futures with leverage if you wish. |
| Do I need to pay for real-time quotes? |
| No. Real-time quotes for the four CME markets are free of charge. |
| How much does it cost to trade Ethereum futures? |
| Trading futures is quite affordable. The commission for purchasing a future is 2,20 $. Clients who trade more than 20 futures per month pay 1,90 $. |
