Singapore Exchange to List Bitcoin, Ether Perpetual Futures

Published at 2025-11-17 09:30:42

The derivatives division of the Singapore Exchange (SGX) announced on Monday it will begin offering perpetual futures trading for bitcoin (BTC) and ether (ETH) on its platform. The new contracts are intended for professional and institutional participants and mark a notable expansion of SGX’s crypto derivatives shelf as regional demand for regulated trading venues grows.

Market participants say the listing could deepen liquidity and improve price discovery for BTC and ETH in the Asia-Pacific region, while giving institutional traders an additional tool for hedging and exposure. Observers will be watching initial volumes and how the products interact with existing offshore venues; the move also underscores Singapore’s push to maintain a clear regulatory environment for digital-asset services.
