CME to list regulated AVAX and SUI futures May 4 with micro contracts, expanding institutional altcoin tools
CME Group will add regulated futures for Avalanche (AVAX) and Sui (SUI) in early May, expanding its crypto derivatives suite.
CME Group announced it will launch futures contracts for Avalanche (AVAX) and Sui (SUI) on May 4, 2026, offering both standard and micro contract sizes, subject to regulatory review [1] [2].
The launches expand CME’s regulated crypto derivatives lineup and give institutional investors additional tools to hedge and trade altcoin exposure; the move comes ahead of a planned shift toward 24/7 crypto derivatives trading and was followed by a positive market reaction for CME’s stock after the announcement [3] [4] [5].
CME said the new AVAX and SUI futures advance its broader digital-asset expansion plan by bringing more altcoin products into a regulated exchange framework [5] [3].
