CME CEO Terry Duffy calls for tougher oversight of crypto derivatives

  • —Duffy wants pre-launch regulatory review of new derivatives instead of self-certification
  • —CME sued the CFTC in June 2026 over its approval of Bitcoin perpetual futures
  • —CME launched 24/7 trading for crypto futures and options on May 29, 2026
  • —Duffy will step down as CME CEO on March 1, 2027
Why it matters: The CFTC lawsuit's outcome will decide whether US Bitcoin perpetuals face the heavier swaps regime.
