Foresight News on-site report: Jennifer Ilkiw, President of ICE Futures U.S., a subsidiary of Intercontinental Exchange, stated at Consensus 2026 that they have partnered with CoinDesk Indices to launch seven cryptocurrency cash-settled futures on the ICE market, including Ethereum, Solana, XRP, BNB, and multi-token indices CoinDesk 5 and CoinDesk 20 futures. The ICE CoinDesk BNB futures is the first BNB futures contract launched by a regulated U.S. exchange. Currently, ProShares has listed the CoinDesk 20 ETF in New York, and Arc Investments plans to launch related products within the next two to three months.
In addition, both parties also plan to launch a USDC contract based on CoinDesk’s overnight rate (CDOR) in April, aiming to provide a rate risk management tool similar to SOFR for the cryptocurrency market. This contract will monitor lending network rates and have CoinDesk calculate the relevant index.
