CME ether futures open interest reaches a record $10 billion as reported on 2025-08-28, signaling rising institutional participation in ether derivatives. The milestone indicates larger capital allocation to regulated Ethereum exposure and greater use of futures for hedging and directional strategies by exchanges, asset managers and professional traders. Elevated open interest can deepen liquidity and support more sophisticated risk management, while also reflecting renewed confidence among institutional players in accessing Ethereum markets via cleared, regulated instruments.
