The gathering is happening just before the inaugural meeting of the CFTC’s new Innovation Advisory Committee the next day.
The committee’s members include the chief executives of Coinbase, Ripple, Gemini, Robinhood, Polymarket, and Kalshi, alongside the heads of CME Group, Nasdaq, Intercontinental Exchange, and the DTCC. CFTC Chairman Mike Selig is expected to attend, and sources say Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick may join. The Thursday CFTC session opens with a panel pointedly titled “Crypto’s Regulatory Evolution: From Uncertainty to Clarity.” The meeting is happening at a very important time for crypto, which is in a real crossroads moment.
