US CFTC releases 24/7 trading supervision guidelines: Crypto derivatives are more suitable for around-the-clock trading

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has jointly issued staff guidance from its divisions of Market Oversight, Clearing, and Risk, addressing regulatory expectations and compliance requirements for the increasingly prevalent 24/7 trading, clearing, and settlement models, encouraging market innovation while ensuring compliance.The guidance emphasizes that regulated trading platforms, swap execution facilities, derivatives clearing organizations, and futures brokers must comply with the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) and related regulatory rules when expanding around-the-clock trading, and must proactively assess risk management and operational arrangements.The CFTC points out that the adaptability of different asset classes to 24/7 trading varies, with derivatives related to crypto assets being more suitable for around-the-clock trading and clearing due to their digital infrastructure and global continuous trading characteristics; whereas traditional commodity derivatives like agricultural products may not be suitable for full 24/7 operation due to their regional and trading structure characteristics.CFTC staff stated that relevant institutions should ensure compliance with regulatory frameworks and risk control requirements while promoting the continuous evolution of the market to support "responsible market innovation."

The bipartisan negotiations on the "CLARITY Act" have not reached an agreement, and the Democrats still have differences regarding the BRCA provisions

According to crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett, sources say that a bipartisan group of minority senators in the U.S. Senate held discussions last night regarding the CLARITY Act, attempting to push the Democrats to make concessions on at least two outstanding issues, but ultimately failed to reach an agreement.Senator Cynthia Lummis stated that both sides had reached consensus on "99% of the content" of the bill and expressed hope that the Democrats would continue to address the remaining issues after the bill passes committee review; otherwise, if a similar incident to FTX occurs in the future, "they can only blame themselves."Reports indicate that Democratic Senators Adam Schiff and Ruben Gallego have been pushing for a compromise on the ethical standards and conflict of interest clauses involving the president's family before the committee review, making it one of the conditions for supporting the bill.Additionally, some Democratic lawmakers have raised concerns about provisions related to the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act (BRCA). This provision aims to prohibit lawsuits against non-custodial software developers based on money transfer laws.Sources say that both sides have made substantial progress on ethical and conflict of interest issues, but disagreements over amendments to the BRCA ultimately led to the breakdown of negotiations. The market currently widely expects that this committee review will show clear partisanship.
