Singapore Exchange Ltd. is stepping up its push into crypto derivatives by seeking to open Bitcoin and Ether perpetual futures to US institutional investors.
Bloomberg reported on September 14 that SGX filed an application with the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission last month to offer crypto perpetual futures to US investors. As an overseas registered exchange, SGX can offer the products to US institutional investors if the CFTC does not object within 10 days.
SGX launched Bitcoin and Ether perpetual futures in November 2025. It plans to use its US expansion to broaden its client base to hedge funds, asset managers and proprietary trading firms.
