CME States That XRP, SOL Futures Leak Was an Error, No Final Decisions Yet.

CME Denies XRP and Solana Futures Plans After Leaked Beta Page, Says No Decision Made

A recent leak on the website of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), which suggested that XRP (XRP) and Solana (SOL) futures could begin trading on Feb. 10, was an error, a CME spokesperson confirmed to CoinDesk.

“A beta page from our website was released in error earlier today,” the representative stated. “The page included several mock-ups as part of our test environment. No decisions have been made regarding the launch of XRP or SOL futures contracts.”

The leaked screenshot, which appeared on X earlier on Wednesday, fueled rumors that the CME was preparing to list the futures products, driving a surge in prices for both XRP and SOL.

Following the news, both tokens rose by up to 3%, but soon after, they retraced some of those gains. The confusion sparked by the leak quickly dissipated with CME’s clarification, with no official confirmation yet on the status of XRP or SOL futures.
