About LedgerX

LedgerX was the first CFTC-regulated bitcoin derivatives exchange in the United States, offering bitcoin options and futures contracts to institutional and retail participants. Founded in 2013 and launching trading in 2017, LedgerX pioneered regulated crypto derivatives clearing. In 2021, it was acquired by FTX and rebranded as FTX US Derivatives. Following the catastrophic collapse of the FTX exchange group in November 2022, FTX US Derivatives ceased operations.

Sioux City Grain Exchange

SCGX · Sioux City, United States

The Sioux City Grain Exchange (SCGX) is a local cash grain market based in Sioux City, Iowa, serving the Northwestern Iowa and surrounding tri-state agricultural region. As a traditional open-outcry grain exchange, it historically provided price discovery and merchandising services for corn, soybeans, and wheat. The exchange represents one of the regional grain markets that predates the consolidation of US grain pricing into national futures exchanges such as CME Group's CBOT.
