BREAKDOWN: Is Kraken's Settlement With the CFTC Actually Bullish?

With CFTC Commissioner Dawn Stump’s corresponding call for her agency to provide more regulatory clarity, many say the enforcement action is actually a win for crypto. This episode is sponsored by NYDIG. Today on “The Breakdown,” NLW looks at the $1.25M settlement Kraken just finalized with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, which accused the crypto exchange of offering margin lending products without the proper licensing. Many noted the small size of the settlement suggested a more lenient CFTC. More important, however, was CFTC Commissioner Dawn Stump’s concurring statement, which called upon her colleagues to replace the current guidance - nearly four years old in concept at this point - with real, formalized rules. Also today on the Brief: Elizabeth Warren lambastes Fed Chair Jerome Powell A positive new crypto mining bill from a bipartisan source Ripple launches a $250 million NFT fund - NYDIG, the institutional-grade platform for bitcoin, is making it possible for thousands of banks who have trusted relationships with hundreds of millions of customers, to offer Bitcoin.
