CFTC proposes new regulatory framework for leveraged retail crypto trading

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has put forth two new rules, Regulation Crypto Asset Transactions (CTX) and Regulation Crypto Asset Markets (CAM), to establish a federal regulatory framework for crypto activities involving leverage, margin, or financing. This initiative aims to close existing regulatory gaps and provide a clear federal pathway for crypto exchanges offering such products.
