The US gives the "green light" for crypto spot trading – A historic milestone for the market
The SEC and #CFTC just announced a groundbreaking joint statement: registered exchanges in the US are allowed to implement crypto spot trading, including leveraged and margin products.
Accordingly, the three types of qualifying exchanges are NSE (national securities exchange), DCM (designated contract market), and FBOT (international exchange permitted to operate in the US). The two agencies emphasized that the law does not prohibit these exchanges from listing crypto spot, while encouraging businesses to engage directly to resolve issues.
This move reflects a rare consensus between #SEC and the CFTC on crypto, paving the way for major exchanges like NYSE, Nasdaq, CBOE, and CME to trade Bitcoin, Ethereum, and many other digital assets alongside stocks and bonds. This could trigger a massive influx of capital from pension funds, banks, and financial institutions flowing legally into crypto.
Experts consider this a historic step, bringing the US closer to its goal of becoming the global "crypto capital" under President Donald $TRUMP . Although there are still challenges regarding oversight mechanisms and investor protection, this statement is seen as the biggest boost for the market since the US approved the Bitcoin spot ETF.
⛔ Risk warning: The crypto market is highly volatile, and despite the participation of traditional exchanges, there are still many risks. Investors should be cautious and carefully consider before participating.
