Breaking News: BTC and ETH Receive the Most Important Policy Boost from the US!
After the US stock market closed, the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) announced the launch of a pilot program for tokenized collateralized digital assets in the derivatives market. The following is the original announcement:
CFTC Acting Chair Carolyn D. Van announced the launch of a digital asset pilot program allowing certain digital assets, such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and USDC, to be used as collateral in the derivatives market. The CFTC also issued guidance on tokenized collateral and revoked outdated regulatory requirements imposed due to the Genius Act.
This move marks a significant milestone in expanding the use of digital assets in regulated markets and follows the tokenized collateral program launched in September 2025—part of the CFTC's "Crypto Sprint," designed to implement the recommendations of the President's Working Group on Digital Asset Markets report.
“Under my leadership, the CFTC has ushered in a golden age of innovation and cryptocurrency for the United States this year. This mission is especially important given the recent customer losses experienced by non-US cryptocurrency exchanges. Americans deserve a safe US domestic market as an alternative to offshore platforms, which is why I announced last week that spot cryptocurrencies can now be traded on CFTC-registered exchanges,” said Acting Chairman Fan.
“Today, I launch the US Digital Asset Pilot Program, allowing tokenized collateral such as Bitcoin and Ethereum to enter the derivatives market. This program will establish clear regulatory safeguards to protect customer assets and strengthen the CFTC’s monitoring and reporting mechanisms. The CFTC will also provide regulatory certainty through guidance on tokenized collateral for real-world assets such as US Treasury bonds and will repeal outdated CFTC requirements that came into effect after the Genius Act. Embracing responsible innovation ensures that the US market remains globally leading and drives US economic growth—market participants can use their funds more safely and efficiently to achieve greater value.”
Summary: Currently, the market is still focused on Powell's speech in the short term. Once speculation begins on the collateralization capabilities of BTC, ETH, and USDC, and subsequent policy benefits, it is very likely to strongly reverse the bearish trend!
