The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has issued an Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to seek public comment on establishing a comprehensive regulatory framework for retail crypto asset transactions and markets under the Commodity Exchange Act. The move aims to create uniform, preventive rules addressing fraudulent schemes and abusive practices in the U.S. crypto asset markets.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Crypto & Web3, and 23 sources have reported it between 18 Sep 2026 and 7 Oct 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You face imminent federal rules shaping retail crypto markets with new compliance demands and fraud controls. Start preparing to adapt your product and legal approach as the CFTC moves to control crypto rather than just penalise after problems.
