Big move from the U.S. derivatives regulator. Acting CFTC Chairman Pham just rolled out a Digital Assets Pilot Program—and it's all about letting tokenized collateral into the game.
What does that mean? Bitcoin, Ethereum, and USDC can now be posted as collateral in derivatives trading under this pilot framework. This could be a turning point for how crypto assets get treated in traditional finance infrastructure.
The program signals a shift in regulatory tone—moving from caution to experimentation. If it gains traction, we might see broader acceptance of digital assets as legitimate financial instruments in regulated markets.
