Feeder Cattle
Yearlings headed to the feedlot. Cash settled against an index, and priced against corn: cheap feed lifts what a feeder is worth.

The front month rolls. Two reads can be two different contracts.
Two ways to launch
Named after feeder cattle
An Argus launch, quoted in USDC. The ticker is a label. No backing, no claim on feeder cattle, no link to CME.
Priced in feeder cattle
Not possible for this contract. Its price feed on Arc closes or expires, and a coin quoting a price that stops is a coin quoting a stale one.
Everything under $FEEDER
A matching ticker is a coincidence. No backing, no claim on feeder cattle, no oracle.Launch $FEEDER
