🚨 Empty Seats at CFTC May Weaken Crypto Regulation Push

New legislation aims to give the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) more authority over crypto markets. But with three of five commissioner seats vacant, the agency may struggle to implement effective oversight.

While lawmakers push for expanded CFTC jurisdiction, staffing gaps raise questions about its readiness to handle complex crypto cases. Will Washington fill these seats before finalizing new regulations?
