CFTC Chair Says Agency Is Turning Page on Crypto Innovation
CFTC Chair Mike Selig said years of anti-crypto opposition stifled innovation and that the agency is now charting a new course.
Commodity Futures Trading Commission Chair Mike Selig said that for years 'anti-crypto armies, doomers, and decelerationists' held back financial innovation. In a statement posted by WatcherGuru, he said the CFTC is turning the page and charting a course for what he called the new frontier of finance as innovators.
The remarks signal a more supportive regulatory tone toward digital assets from the US derivatives regulator. Selig offered no specific policy changes, but his comments may reinforce expectations of a friendlier stance on crypto oversight.
