CFTC to hold Dec. 15 roundtable on 24/7 derivatives trading
- —Roundtable set for Dec. 15 at CFTC headquarters in Washington, livestreamed to the public
- —Topics include overnight trading, asset tokenization, infrastructure and operational readiness
- —The CFTC sought public comment this summer on longer trading hours and perpetual futures
- —Chairman Selig said the agency will not take a one-size-fits-all approach to 24/7 trading
Why it matters: Round-the-clock derivatives trading would narrow the gap between traditional markets and crypto and could speed U.S. approval of perpetual futures.
