CFTC to write crypto rules under existing authority as CLARITY Act stalls

  • —CTX would let U.S. retail investors trade spot crypto on margin and with leverage
  • —CAM proposes a federal registration pathway for exchanges, reducing state licensing
  • —Selig said the rules aim to strengthen customer fund protections and curb conflicts
  • —The proposals are at an early stage after Congress failed to pass the CLARITY Act
Why it matters: Federal rules would simplify nationwide operations for Coinbase and Kraken and cut regulatory uncertainty across the U.S. crypto market.
