The CFTC launched the "Crypto Sprint" on August 1, 2025, aiming to accelerate rules and frameworks for digital assets, reduce regulatory uncertainty, and strengthen U.S. leadership in crypto. The initiative is a joint effort with the SEC, focusing on spot trading, custody, clearing, margin, and retail trading.
*Recent Key Developments:*

- The joint staff of the SEC and CFTC clarified that U.S.-registered exchanges can facilitate trading of certain spot crypto asset products under current law
- The CFTC launched an initiative enabling listed spot crypto asset contracts on CFTC-registered futures exchanges
*What This Means & What to Watch:*

- Spot crypto trading is becoming feasible in the U.S., with U.S. exchanges/registered entities offering spot crypto products under federal oversight
- Watch for detailed rule-making, consultations, and jurisdictional shifts, as the CFTC and SEC define their roles
