Note
CFTC is ready to give a go-ahead for Ethereum futuresThus, the right to regulate the ethereal market for the CFTC will be enshrined in legal terms, since now only coercive instruments exist. In addition, trading in non-deliverable ethereum futures is an opportunity for institutionalists to trade ether safely and according to understandable regulated rules.
Many experts believe that allowing CFTC to trade in ethereal futures will have a positive effect on the fate of cryptocurrency ETFs. Perhaps the Securities Commission (SEC) will still issue a permit to organize funds in the near future.
Recall that last December, the CFTC began collecting information about Ethereum technology and its application possibilities. The ministry said they intend to study in detail the collected data in order to develop a regulatory framework for regulating the ethereum market.
Coin Center, Blockchain LLC, Circle, Coinbase, ErisX and even odious Craig Wright provided information for the commission. The start of trading in non-deliverable futures took place in December 2017 on the two main exchanges in Chicago: option CBOE) and commodity (CME). Despite this, the Bakkt from Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) platform, which should be running trading in deliverable bitcoin futures, has still not received permission to open trades.
