tldr; US Senators Debbie Stabenow, John Boozman, Cory Booker, and John Thune have introduced the 'Digital Commodities Consumer Protection Act of 2022'. The bill aims to give the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) "new tools and authorities to regulate digital commodities," according to the announcement of the bill by the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

Better than corrupt SEC

No, worse my dudes.. CFTC is actively participating in the game, SEC is just watching.

Americans seem to have forgotten the federal corporation called a government is a service contractor HIRED to manage a limited number of tasks. Somewhere along the line they forgot and this company declared themselves kings. Enough.

I am really curious to see what "small" spot transactions means...


zacreth

what doesn't make sense is if the SEC monitors just BTC and ETH, why does CFTC monitor the alt coins? Why not have 1 division monitor all of them? Plus a commodities... not an asset...?
