According to CoinWorld news, the cryptocurrency exchange platform Kraken officially launched CME Bitcoin and Ethereum futures trading services in the United States on Thursday, marking its first entry into the compliant derivatives market in the U.S. Meanwhile, the U.S. Congress passed two landmark digital asset bills, GENIUS and CLARITY, marking a turning point in U.S. crypto policy. The new regulations will bring a clearer regulatory framework to the industry while further solidifying the position of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) as the primary regulatory body. At the same time, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has officially withdrawn enforcement actions against three major cryptocurrency companies, including Kraken, indicating a significant shift in regulatory attitude.
