Brazil’s B3 Exchange is gearing up to introduce Solana and Ethereum futures on June 16, 2025, as part of its efforts to broaden crypto accessibility for institutional investors. This strategic move aims to diversify investment options within the crypto asset market, catering to the evolving needs of investors.

The decision to launch Solana and Ethereum futures comes after securing approval from Brazil’s Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM), marking a significant milestone for the exchange. By expanding its crypto offerings, B3 is streamlining the entry process for institutional clients, easing concerns related to digital asset custody.

Marcos Skistymas, B3’s Product Director, emphasized the value of these futures contracts in meeting the escalating demand for crypto-linked products. The introduction of these new derivatives reflects B3’s commitment to innovation and sophistication in its offerings, providing a wider array of investment alternatives for tech-savvy investors.
Each Solana and Ethereum futures contract will be denominated in USD, with sizes set at 0.25 ETH and 5 SOL. These products have undergone extensive development over the past four months, with a targeted rollout before the year concludes. Additionally, the size of Bitcoin futures contracts will be reduced to enhance market liquidity and accessibility for traders.
B3’s foray into the ETF market further underscores its proactive stance in the crypto landscape. Collaborations with industry giants like BlackRock have resulted in pioneering initiatives like the XRP-based Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) product, positioning B3 at the forefront of Brazil’s crypto evolution.

The introduction of Solana and Ethereum futures aligns with B3’s broader vision of supporting Brazil’s embrace of cryptocurrencies as a burgeoning asset class. By diversifying its product portfolio and fostering strategic partnerships, B3 is poised to play a pivotal role in shaping the country’s evolving financial landscape.
