Bloomberg reported that Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), and cryptocurrency exchange OKX are preparing to launch perpetual crude oil futures. The futures will use ICE's Brent crude and West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil futures prices as underlying assets, and services will be provided in regions where OKX holds a perpetual futures license. ICE invested in OKX and signed a blockchain-based technology cooperation agreement in March of this year.
