Bitcoin alternative products have been around for a few years now, with CBOE and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) some of the first firms to list them. However, the demand for Bitcoin alternative products wasn’t high in the past. Things have changed over the past year as institutional investors are now hungry for alternative investment products that would give them exposure to Bitcoin.

CBOE could re-list Bitcoin futures due to high demand

The CEO of Chicago-based exchange holding company CBOE said the firm could re-list Bitcoin futures on its trading platform due to rising demands. The exchange famously delisted Bitcoin futures for unknown reasons.

Ed Tilly said in a phone interview that CBOE could bring back its Bitcoin futures. He stated that “We’re still interested in the space. We haven’t given up on it. We’re keen on building out the entire platform. There’s a lot of demand from retail and institutions, and we need to be there.”

CBOE was the first regulated exchange globally to list Bitcoin futures in December 2017, during the last bull cycle. However, the firm decided to stop offering them in June 2019 for unknown reasons. The exchange is now open to the idea of listing the Bitcoin derivatives again.

CME is the largest regulated exchange providing Bitcoin derivative products. The exchange has nearly $3 billion worth of open interest for its bitcoin futures as of yesterday, behind the likes of Binance, Okex, and Bybit, which are unregulated exchanges in the space.

CBOE also looking at Bitcoin ETF

The regulated exchange is also looking to offer Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETF) to investors in the United States. In 2019, Cboe’s BZX exchange withdrew a proposal to the SEC to list and trade shares of the VanEck/SolidX Bitcoin ETF.

However, CBOE filed again with the SEC earlier this month as it plans to list and trade the VanEck Bitcoin Trust. Tilly stated that “We’re very keen to move along approval for the VanEck ETF.” The SEC is yet to make any final decision on the six Bitcoin ETF proposals currently on its table.
