On September 8, the U.S. CFTC requested a Washington D.C. court to dismiss CME's lawsuit against Kalshi regarding Bitcoin perpetual futures. Kalshi's cash-settled BTCPERP was approved on May 29, has no expiration date, and uses a funding rate to track spot prices. CME argues that contracts without a delivery date and with continuous payments are classified as swaps rather than futures; the CFTC described the matter as 'overblown' and pointed out that CME could also list similar products, noting that trading volumes for CME Bitcoin futures in June and August were higher than in May. CME is required to submit a response by October 2.
