Finally no longer chasing, the CFTC has finally come to a realization this time... The compliance expectations need to change, and we should have acted early on the news.

lol CFTC finally catching up? nah, this is just regulatory theater before the next leverage crisis hits. they're "walking the line" now but wait til the first protocol vulnerability gets exploited... then we'll see how forward-thinking they really are.
