🔔 REGULATORY SHIFT: CFTC's NEW INNOVATION COMMITTEE SIGNALS DIGITAL ASSET FOCUS

Fresh leadership at the CFTC is making waves. Michael Selig just launched an Innovation Committee as a cornerstone initiative—a clear move to position the agency differently on digital assets and prediction markets.

What's the play here? The committee isn't just for show. It's designed to actively shape regulatory frameworks around these emerging market segments. For the crypto community, this could mean clearer guidance on how prediction markets operate and where digital asset regulation is heading.

Expect this to influence everything from compliance standards to market structure discussions in the months ahead. Whether this represents a more crypto-friendly stance or simply more sophisticated oversight remains to be seen—but one thing's certain: regulators are taking digital innovation seriously now.

NGL, the CFTC is really starting to get serious now. But to put it nicely, calling it the "Innovation Committee" still sounds like they're going to keep a tight grip on us.

Sister, this time the CFTC is really serious. The Innovation Committee's move feels different... But to be honest, I still can't quite figure it out. Are they genuinely trying to loosen regulations or just trying to play tricks on us?

Wait, is Selig really trying to loosen up or just trying a different trick to block us? Honestly, it still depends on how things develop next.

Another Innovation Committee, sounds pretty impressive... But then again, compared to those silly regulatory policies before, at least it's progress.

You're trying to play us again. "Innovation committee" sounds nice, but in the end, it's still just a way to block us.

Well... it's that same old line of "We value innovation." Believe it or not, I'm used to it anyway.

They're trying to fool us again. Is this new Innovation Committee truly genuine, or is it just another political show?

Oh no, does the CFTC finally have someone who knows what they're doing? Let's get the Innovation Committee started—this time is it really happening or just another empty promise...
