CFTC Chair Mike Selig: Crypto Regulatory Framework Aims to Prevent FTX-Style Fraud

Odaily News: U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Chair Mike Selig stated that the CFTC's proposed crypto asset regulatory framework will establish a federal-level oversight system to protect exchange customers from fraud, market manipulation, and theft of customer funds, preventing a repeat of the FTX collapse. Mike Selig noted that the CFTC is working to introduce market-based regulatory mechanisms for crypto exchanges; he stated that critics who oppose these measures and support maintaining the status quo may objectively be benefiting fraudsters, manipulators, and those who misappropriate customer funds, and warned that the absence of such regulation could leave the door open for the next Sam Bankman-Fried figure.
