Speaking on Fox News, she highlighted the collapse of FTX as a cautionary tale, noting that many investors lost out due to a lack of regulatory protections."
The CFTC authorizes federally regulated spot crypto trading on CFTC-registered exchanges, enabling listed spot crypto products to trade under full federal oversight. Bitnomial, Inc. will launch as a U.S.-based derivatives exchange operating the first leveraged retail spot crypto exchange regulated by the CFTC. Bitnomial's DCM and DCO will let retail and institutional traders trade spot, perpetuals, futures, and options on a single platform. Unified portfolio margining and clearinghouse net settlement remove redundant margin requirements, improve capital efficiency, and reduce counterparty risk. Regulators position the framework as a safer alternative to offshore platforms and a response to failures like FTX.
