The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Acting Chair Caroline Pham has announced the launch of a digital asset collateral pilot program. This initiative allows Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and USD Coin (USDC) to be used as collateral in derivatives markets. Alongside this, the CFTC has issued new regulatory guidelines for tokenized collateral and repealed outdated rules that no longer align with the GENIUS Act. During the first three months of the pilot, Futures Commission Merchants (FCMs) will be limited to accepting only these three types of digital assets as collateral. They are required to disclose their holdings and classifications weekly and report any significant issues promptly. Additionally, the CFTC has rescinded virtual currency guidelines numbered 20-34, as recent developments in digital assets and tokenized collateral have rendered them obsolete.
