Crypto.com Approved to Launch Single-Stock Futures in the U.S., Plans to Offer Stock Perpetual Contracts

Odaily News: Nadex, the U.S. regulated derivatives trading platform under Crypto.com, has completed its registration with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and can now offer securities futures products through OG.com. The registration took effect on September 14, and the SEC confirmed the registration filing on September 16. CEO Kris Marszalek stated that this registration authorizes the company to introduce single-stock futures to the U.S. market, and the company is also working with the SEC and CFTC to push for offering single-stock perpetual contracts, i.e., futures contracts with no fixed expiration date, in the United States.

U.S. trading platforms are racing to establish a foothold in stock perpetual futures. Coinbase also submitted a similar registration notice earlier this month, seeking to list stock perpetual contracts in the United States. Its Chief Policy Officer Faryar Shirzad said the plan still requires CFTC approval. (TheBlock)
