LUXOR TECHNOLOGY and BITNOMIAL have collaborated to launch a Bitcoin mining derivative product called HASHRATE FUTURES (HUP), which is now live on BITNOMIAL's U.S. derivatives exchange. This derivative futures contract aims to trade the computational power of the Bitcoin blockchain, providing miners with a way to hedge income and allowing investors to gain exposure to Bitcoin mining hash power. HASHRATE FUTURES utilize LUXOR's Bitcoin HASHPRICE index as the settlement reference rate and offer non-deliverable HASHRATE FORWARDS products.
