CFTC Turns Page on Anti-Crypto Stance

US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Chairman Mike Selig has spoken out against forces opposed to digital assets, saying they have stifled financial innovation. According to Selig, anti-crypto groups and pessimists have hindered technological progress for years.

The CFTC is now shifting its approach, working with innovators to forge a new path in finance, said Selig. This move marks a significant change of direction for the commission.
