CFTC sends proposed crypto rules to White House, while direct spot trading remains outside their scope
The CFTC is advancing its first dedicated crypto-market rulemaking, with a package sent to the White House for review. Reports identify two proposed measures as Regulation Crypto Asset Transactions (CTX) and Regulation Crypto Asset Markets (CAM) [1] [2] [3] [4].
The proposals are intended to cover a broad range of crypto activity and exchanges under the CFTC’s remit, but not simple, direct trading, leaving a gap in oversight of spot-market activity, CoinDesk reported [5].
