Singapore Exchange to Launch Bitcoin Perpetual Futures for Institutions in 2025

Singapore Exchange (SGX) plans to launch Bitcoin perpetual futures in the latter half of 2025, exclusively targeting institutional and professional investors. The move is part of Singapore’s broader strategy to strengthen regulated cryptocurrency trading. Pending approval from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), these futures aim to provide a reliable alternative for digital asset investments.

Singapore Exchange (SGX) plans to launch Bitcoin perpetual futures for institutions in 2025. This initiative aims to expand regulated crypto trading options, offering institutions a secure and compliant way to gain Bitcoin exposure.

SGX’s Bitcoin futures launch is currently awaiting approval from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS). The exchange aims to leverage its strong credit rating and trusted market position to provide a credible alternative to unregulated crypto exchanges.

This development follows a growing trend of established financial institutions embracing cryptocurrency derivatives. Japan’s Osaka Dojima Exchange is also seeking approval to list Bitcoin futures, reflecting the increasing demand for institutional-grade digital asset trading solutions in Asia.

Singapore has positioned itself as a leader in cryptocurrency regulation, with MAS actively supporting the sector’s growth. In 2024, the regulator doubled the number of crypto licenses issued, signaling its commitment to fostering a well-regulated digital asset ecosystem.

With SGX entering the crypto derivatives space, institutional investors will gain access to a more structured and secure trading environment, reinforcing Singapore’s reputation as a global fintech hub.
