The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), under Acting Chair Caroline Pham, has announced the launch of a series of public roundtables to address challenges and opportunities in market structure and innovation. These discussions will focus on key areas such as digital assets, prediction markets, and conflicts of interest. The initiative aims to develop a robust regulatory framework informed by expert analysis, public input, and comprehensive data. Pham emphasized the importance of adapting oversight to the evolving financial landscape while ensuring market resilience and fairness. This marks a shift toward clearer rules and open dialogue on crypto since the departure of Gary Gensler. The roundtables are part of the CFTC's broader effort to foster innovation and competitiveness in U.S. markets while maintaining clear rules to protect market integrity. Specific dates and details for the sessions will be announced in the coming weeks.
