The U.S. CFTC Explores Allowing Registered Futures Platforms to Offer Cryptocurrency Spot Contracts Trading
BlockBeats News, August 5th, according to Bloomberg, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is exploring how to allow leveraged digital assets, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, to be listed on registered futures trading platforms.
CFTC Acting Chairman Caroline Pham said, "The CFTC can now take a clear and straightforward solution." She referenced a column she published in March of this year, where she suggested that the agency could exercise its exemption authority to allow certain entities to operate outside of current regulatory constraints—constraints that currently only permit futures trading platforms to list derivative products.
The CFTC has now sought public feedback on trading spot contracts of crypto assets listed on registered futures trading platforms, with a deadline of August 18th.
