Cryptocurrency developers and US lawmakers are moving towards putting the Commodity Futures Trading Commission in charge of regulating digital currencies, said CFTC Commissioner Summer Mersinger.
The designation would expand the CFTC's mandate to oversee agricultural, energy and financial options markets and pave the way for the agency to regulate other digital assets such as non-fungible tokens, or NFTs.
Separately, the CFTC is considering how carbon trading markets operate, with a view towards their use in hedging and risk management.
