Bipartisan Legislation Would Give CFTC Oversight of "Digital Commodity Platforms" and "Digital Commodity" Trading | Practical Law
US Senators Debbie Stabenow (D-MI), John Boozman (R-AR), Cory Booker (D-NJ), and John Thune (R-SD) introduced the Digital Commodities Consumer Protection Act of 2022 (DCCPA), authorizing the CFTC to regulate "digital commodity platforms" and "digital commodity" trading. The proposal would effectively give the CFTC primary oversight over most crypto trading platforms in the US.
