Ethereum Futures Contract Predicts Price on August 5, 2026

Roger and his colleagues at Robinhood Derivatives are offering a futures contract that predicts the price of Ethereum on August 5, 2026, at 1 pm EDT. The contract is based on CF Benchmarks' Real Time Index (RTI) prices.

The final value will be the average of 60 RTI prices collected in the last minute before expiration. Those who own contracts and have a correct prediction get $1 per contract. However, there are trading prohibitions for certain individuals and those with material non-public information on Ethereum.

Roger reminds us that event contracts involve significant risk and may not be suitable for everyone. He suggests carefully considering one's personal financial circumstances before participating in the futures market.
