The US CFTC has requested a court to dismiss CME Group’s lawsuit challenging the regulator’s approval of Kalshi’s Bitcoin perpetual futures contract, asserting CME’s claims lack legal basis and that CME itself chose not to list perpetual futures despite the option.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech, and 2 sources have reported it.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You face a clearer path for launching perpetual futures in the US as the regulator dismisses challenges to new crypto derivatives. This ruling shifts the burden onto exchanges resisting product listings rather than regulatory barriers.
