Payments-focused cryptocurrency XRP and the world’s most widely used blockchain Solana (SOL) prices rose on Wednesday afternoon after reports that the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) is adding futures contracts for both.
According to a post on X, CME has put up the futures site for XRP and SOL in their “staging subdomain.”

XRP and SOL jumped as much as 3% in the minutes after the post began circulating on social media, TradingView data showed.
