Method

  1. Each venue milestone is a dated event with a status: announced, pending regulatory review, approved, listed, trading or withdrawn.
  2. Contract specifications are stored as data (CME: 730 GPU-hours per contract, $0.01 per GPU-hour tick, 36 monthly listings, cash-settled; ICE: up to 24 monthly contracts, $0.001 tick).
  3. No venue is described as launched or listed until it confirms first trade.

Caveats

  • Prices, volume and open interest are stored only once a venue trades.
