The US CFTC may allow the use of stablecoins as tokenized collateral in derivatives markets

According to ChainCatcher, sources familiar with the matter have revealed that the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is formulating a tokenized collateral policy, which is expected to be introduced early next year. This policy may allow the use of stablecoins as acceptable tokenized collateral in derivatives markets, potentially starting with a pilot at U.S. clearinghouses. The policy will implement stricter regulations, requiring more disclosures such as position sizes, large traders and trading volumes, as well as more detailed reporting of operational events.
