CFTC Opens Door to Spot Crypto on Regulated Exchanges – Industry Feedback Wanted
7
1
The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) just dropped a bombshell—they're exploring a framework to list spot crypto on registered exchanges. No more shadows; regulators want digital assets playing by traditional market rules.

Regulators hedging their bets? How novel.
