PANews July 18 news, according to Decrypt, the cryptocurrency exchange Kraken officially launched CME Bitcoin and Ethereum futures trading services in the United States this Thursday, marking its first entry into the U.S. compliant derivatives market. This move coincides with the U.S. Congress passing the GENIUS and CLARITY landmark digital asset bills, signifying a turning point for U.S. crypto policy. The new regulations will provide a clearer regulatory framework for the industry, while the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) further solidifies its position as the primary regulatory body. Meanwhile, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has officially withdrawn its enforcement actions against Kraken and two other major crypto companies, indicating a significant shift in regulatory attitude.
Earlier this week, it was reported that Kraken launched its derivatives service KrakenDerivatives US in the U.S. market.
