According to The Block, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange Group (CME Group) plans to launch cash-settled Bitcoin volatility futures on June 1, pending regulatory approval.

The product trading code is BVI, with a contract multiplier of $500 times the BVX index value, and will settle to the CME CF Bitcoin Volatility Index (real-time 30-day implied volatility metric). Giovanni Vicioso, global head of CME cryptocurrency products, stated that this move allows traders to directly trade and hedge Bitcoin volatility without making directional bets on the price of Bitcoin.
