Just a has-been listing. I don't know why the CME does that with new products.

Nah man, the big is 5 full BTC, so with this at .1 BTC, there you have it.

Sucks. All of the other Minis are 1/10. CME should have started with futures at 1 BTC.

Yeah, they screwed the pooch on it. That's why there is so little volume on the BTC future. The maintenance is like $110K on it.

Maybe they will redefine the full in the future.

volume has been very pathetic at around 10k/day

current BTC volume is very pathetic.
