CME Group to Launch SOL, XRP futures next month, Remittix steals headlines with huge double update

The CME Group has announced it will expand its crypto offerings by launching Solana futures and XRP futures options in October, building on record-breaking trading activity.

While that’s big news for traders, it’s Remittix (RTX) stealing the spotlight with a double update.

After surpassing $22M raised, Remittix confirmed listings on BitMart and LBank, plus launched its wallet beta and lucrative referral rewards program.

Institutional traders eye Solana and XRP futures for hedging

The CME Group, the world’s largest derivatives exchange, is set to expand its crypto lineup with Solana futures and XRP futures options beginning October 13.

The contracts will include both standard and micro sizes, with expiries available daily, monthly, and quarterly.

This marks a major step forward, as it is the first time CME has moved beyond Bitcoin futures and Ethereum futures into other top altcoins.

Momentum has already been building. Since their launches earlier this year, over 540,000 Solana (SOL) futures contracts worth $22.3 billion in notional value have traded, with August alone setting records at 9,000 contracts per day.

The Solana price today at $248.15 underlines the growing demand for regulated trading products.

XRP has been no less impressive. More than 370,000 XRP futures contracts have exchanged hands, valued at $16.2 billion.

In August, XRP futures saw record open interest of $942 million, making them one of CME’s fastest-growing offerings.

With XRP price hovering at $3.13, institutional traders now have fresh tools to manage risk and seek upside.

The expansion of XRP news and Solana news in the derivatives market reflects rising appetite from both institutions and active traders, setting the stage for broader adoption in regulated U.S. markets.

Wallet beta marks first working product in Remittix ecosystem

While CME’s move into Solana futures and XRP futures has caught attention, it’s Remittix (RTX) that is making the real noise with back-to-back milestones.

Often called “XRP 2.0,” Remittix is shaping PayFi for everyday users, not just institutions. 

The project has now smashed through $20M raised, secured a first CEX listing on BitMart, and quickly followed up with another upcoming listing on LBank after crossing $22M.

To top it off, the long-awaited Remittix wallet beta is live, giving select community members hands-on access to the first working product.

And just when things couldn’t get hotter, Remittix rolled out a referral program paying 15% in USDT, claimable daily.

• $20M milestone unlocked BitMart as the first official RTX CEX listing
• $22M milestone confirmed an upcoming LBank listing for RTX
• Remittix wallet beta is now live with community testers onboard
• New referral program pays 15% in USDT, claimable every 24 hours

This is more than just hype. Remittix has products, listings, and community growth all firing at once.

With over $26M raised, the $250,000 Remittix Giveaway live, and adoption expanding, RTX looks ready to mirror XRP’s success and carve out its own legacy.
