Multicoin Capital Co-founder Proposes Pre-IPO Perpetual Futures, Allowing Ordinary US Investors to Participate in the AI Industry

Odaily News: The inaugural Innovation Advisory Committee meeting of the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) was held this morning. Tushar Jain, co-founder of Multicoin Capital, put forward three proposals at the meeting: First, establish a safe harbor or innovation exemption mechanism for emerging markets such as computing power derivatives, allowing developers to test new products and business models within a compliant framework; Second, support the adoption of compliant privacy and confidentiality tools in DeFi, ensuring transaction privacy for institutional investors while providing regulators with sufficient transparency to identify and manage systemic risks; Third, support the launch of Pre-IPO perpetual futures, enabling ordinary US investors to participate in the wealth growth of emerging industries such as AI, preventing them from being excluded due to private market access restrictions, or being forced to participate indirectly through special purpose vehicles (SPVs) that lack transparency.

Tushar Jain also stated that he had exchanges with SEC Chairman Paul Atkins on the same day, expressing optimism about regulators driving financial innovation and the future development of the United States.
