The Brazilian Stock Exchange (B3) has announced the launch of ether and Solana futures contracts in order to expand the types of crypto products it offers to investors who are interested in these assets. B3 will launch these new futures on June 16.
The Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission <a href="https://borainvestir.b3.com.br/tipos-de-investimentos/renda-variavel/criptoativos/cvm-aprova-lancamento-dos-contratos-futuros-de-ethereum-e-solana-pela-b3/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">(CVM) </a>has approved the launching of ETH and SOL futures contracts. They are meant to make it easier for institutions to get into the crypto market without having to worry about how to store their assets. This is a problem that small businesses often have.
B3 said that the launch of these goods had been planned since February and that the futures contracts should be available by the end of the year.

Unlike Bitcoin futures, these contracts will be traded in US dollars at prices of 0.25 ETH and 5 SOL, respectively. They will also be referenced to the Nasdaq Ether Reference Price and Nasdaq Solana Reference Price indices.
Marcos Skistymas, product director at B3, said these products were important for the stock market because they give customers “regulated and secure” crypto instruments.&nbsp;
He said, “B3 makes new cryptocurrency derivatives instruments available to meet the growing demand for products linked to crypto assets, bringing more innovation and sophistication to our products, in addition to offering more alternatives to investors familiar with blockchain technology.”
Also, the stock exchange announced a drop in Bitcoin futures contract prices, which the CVM had previously approved. Prices for these contracts, which are now at 0.1 BTC, will be decreased to 0.01 BTC. This will make them more accessible to investors, boost market liquidity, and lower trading costs. This comes after the recent rise in Bitcoin’s <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bitcoin" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">price </a>which is back to the 100k level.
Now,&nbsp; with the launch of Ethereum and Solana futures, as well as involvement in DREX trials and market transparency powered by blockchain, Brazil is getting ready for a more structured and institutionalized crypto ecosystem.
This means better trade tools for investors, more control over their crypto assets, and a future where digital finance and traditional markets work together without any problems.

B3 has become the place to go for launching new crypto-based investment goods. It is becoming a stronger player in Brazil’s digital finance industry.&nbsp;
As of late last month, B3 <a href="https://www.cryptopolitan.com/brazil-launches-xrp-spot-etf-xrph11/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">launched</a> the Hashdex Nasdaq XRP Fundo de Índice (XRPH11), which is the first spot XRP ETF in the world. The ETF keeps an eye on the spot price of XRP, which is Ripple’s cryptocurrency and invests at least 95% of its net assets in XRP and other connected assets.
B3 offers a number of other crypto-related ETFs handled by Hashdex in addition to the XRP ETF. These include ETFs linked to Bitcoin (BITH11), Ethereum (ETHE11), and Solana (SOLH11).
Hashdex launched nine crypto ETFs on B3. This means that institutional and advanced investors in Brazil can now choose from a wider range of controlled digital asset investment products.
Meanwhile, the crypto market is moving strongly upward. According to on-chain data, Bitcoin has gone up 4% in the last 24 hours to about $103,000. Ether has gone up an amazing 20% to $2,300, and Solana has gone up 11% to $172.
