    Yes, futures contracts for Bitcoin typically expire at the same time as futures contracts for other cryptocurrencies. This is because futures contracts are standardized financial instruments that follow a set expiration schedule. The expiration dates are determined by the exchange where the contracts are traded, and they are usually the same for all cryptocurrencies. It is important for traders to be aware of the expiration dates and plan their trading strategies accordingly.
