CBOE Global Markets came up with a statement that it’s about to cease trading in Bitcoin futures just a year after its launch. On Friday, the Chicago-based group told that it won’t list fresh contracts for the crypto asset, suggesting that trade will cease when open contracts are settled in June. As for interest in Cboe futures, it slumped because trading volumes at Cboe turn out to be lower than those on CME.
