CFTC Chair: Only Federally Regulated Crypto Exchanges May Offer Leverage

  • —Leveraged crypto trading would be limited to federally regulated exchanges
  • —States would only oversee money transmission business
  • —Offshore-style 100x leverage will not be allowed in the US
Why it matters: The rule would cement federal oversight of crypto derivatives and curb high-leverage access, reshaping competition among exchanges.
