CFTC Submits Crypto Regulatory Framework to White House

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has submitted its regulatory framework for crypto-related markets to the White House for review, signaling a step toward formal rulemaking.

The action, titled 'Regulation Crypto Asset Transactions and Regulation Crypto Asset Markets,' was filed on September 17 with the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) and is currently listed as 'prerule.'

This designation means the agency has not yet issued a formal proposed rule, but it indicates that the CFTC is moving toward a more structured regulatory approach for crypto trading activity and market infrastructure.
