CFTC allows crypto perpetual contracts for Coinbase and Kalshi users
The CFTC has given the green light to perpetual futures contracts, enabling users to speculate on crypto prices without owning the underlying assets.
This move represents a more open stance by the US agency towards crypto derivatives.
The decision also distinguished between traditional and crypto markets, deeming the latter suitable for 24/7 trading due to their digital infrastructure and global reach.
