CFTC seeks to allow spot crypto trading on registered exchanges
The CFTC is seeking feedback on how to more effectively regulate spot crypto trading as it moves to implement recommendations from the Trump administration.
The US Commodity Futures Trading Commission has launched an initiative to enable the trading of “spot crypto asset contracts” on CFTC-registered futures exchanges.
The invitation is part of the CFTC’s “crypto sprint” initiative to implement recommendations from President Donald Trump’s Working Group on Digital Asset Markets, which included 18 recommendations.
“The CFTC is full speed ahead on enabling immediate trading of digital assets at the Federal level in coordination with the SEC’s Project Crypto,” wrote the CFTC’s Acting Chair Caroline Pham in a statement on Monday.
