CFTC Chairman Mike Selig announced that the agency is set to finalize regulations for professional perpetual contracts in the U.S. within the next month. Speaking at a Washington event, Selig highlighted that previous regulatory frameworks have driven companies and liquidity abroad. The CFTC, alongside the SEC, is progressing on digital asset policies through Project Crypto, aiming to provide guidance for DeFi developers and set standards for prediction markets. SEC Chairman Paul Atkins noted that while regulators are facilitating innovation through exemptions, legislative clarity from Congress is essential. Meanwhile, U.S. Senate discussions on digital asset market transparency continue.
