BTC and ETH Nano Futures Go Live on $800B Interactive Brokers Platform

Interactive Brokers launches nano Bitcoin and Ethereum futures via Coinbase Derivatives, offering 24/7 regulated access for pros.

Interactive Brokers has launched nano Bitcoin and nano Ethereum futures on its trading platform through Coinbase Derivatives.

The move expands regulated crypto futures access for both retail and institutional traders. The broker oversees more than $800 billion in assets across global markets.

Interactive Brokers Launches Nano BTC and ETH Futures

Interactive Brokers announced the rollout of nano Bitcoin and nano Ethereum futures on Tuesday.

The products are offered via Coinbase Derivatives and are available for trading at all hours. The launch allows clients to access crypto futures within a regulated framework.

Each nano Bitcoin futures contract represents 0.01 BTC, while nano Ethereum futures represent 0.10 ETH.

These smaller sizes reduce capital requirements and support more controlled position sizing.

Traders can enter positions with lower exposure compared to standard futures contracts.

The futures include monthly expirations and perpetual-style formats. These structures allow traders to maintain positions over longer periods.

They also provide flexibility when managing exposure to Bitcoin and Ethereum price changes.

Trading Structure and Platform Integration

The nano futures are available directly on the Interactive Brokers platform. Clients can manage crypto futures alongside equities, options, bonds, and commodities.

This setup allows traders to oversee multiple asset classes within one account.

Trading is supported on a 24-hour basis, including weekends. This aligns crypto futures access with global digital asset markets.

It also allows continuous risk management without market closures.

Milan Galik, CEO of Interactive Brokers, addressed demand for these products. He stated, “Perpetual-style crypto futures have become popular with traders because they provide long-dated exposure and greater flexibility.”

Expanding Crypto Access and Market Response

Interactive Brokers has continued to expand its crypto offerings over time.

The platform already supports trading in Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, XRP, Litecoin, and Bitcoin Cash. These services are provided through regulated partnerships.

The collaboration with Coinbase Derivatives adds to existing futures access. Interactive Brokers has long offered CME micro Bitcoin and Ethereum futures.

Clients also have access to spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds through the platform.

Bitcoin prices rose slightly after the announcement. BTC traded near $69,272, with daily movement between $67,913 and $71,076.

Ethereum traded near $2,020 during the same period, reflecting a modest decline.
