CME Group, the world’s largest derivatives marketplace, is rolling out single-asset benchmarks for Ethena’s ENA token, effective August 24, 2026. The new products will deliver real-time pricing and daily reference rates calibrated to London, New York, and APAC trading sessions.
It’s the latest addition to CME’s growing menu of cryptocurrency pricing tools, all administered by CF Benchmarks.
What CME is actually launching
The new suite includes three distinct reference rate variants: ENAUSD_RR for the London close, ENAUSD_NY for the New York close, and ENAUSD_AP for the APAC close. Each will publish at 4 p.m. local time in its respective region.
The rates will be published daily, including weekends and holidays. Alongside the reference rates, CME will also release associated real-time indices for ENA. The pricing data will be sourced from aggregated trading activity across multiple spot exchanges, a methodology designed to reduce the influence of any single venue.
