Fusion42 · 9 October 2026 · Fusion42 review

CFTC Chair Mike Selig announced plans to implement new crypto trading regulations under existing federal authority, allowing voluntary exchange registration, retail margin trading with regulated leverage, and stricter investor protections despite Congress not passing the CLARITY Act.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech, and 2 sources have reported it between 5 Oct 2026 and 9 Oct 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Federal crypto platform rules are tightening under CFTC oversight, opening the door for exchanges to offer retail margin trading with capped leverage. You need to assess compliance now to avoid future market access issues in the US.
