Outgoing Commodity Futures Trading Commissioner Christy Romero issued a stark warning about growing market uncertainty during her farewell remarks at The Brookings Institution. The regulatory landscape faces volatility as the new administration pursues a deregulatory agenda, creating what Romero termed ’big swings’ between oversight and laissez-faire approaches.

’This pendulum effect threatens market stability,’ Romero asserted, emphasizing the need for consistent frameworks. Her departure comes amid significant turnover at the CFTC, with observers noting potential implications for cryptocurrency oversight given the agency’s jurisdiction over Bitcoin and Ethereum derivatives.
