CFTC就加密资产交易联邦规则征求意见：拟设全国统一监管框架
商品期货交易委员会（CFTC）10月5日发布预先规则制定通知（ANPRM），就为加密资产零售商品交易建立一套综合监管框架征求公众意见。这类涉及加密资产、依据《商品交易法》第 2(c)(2)(D) 条进行的零售交易，在 CFTC 文件中简称 CTX；使用杠杆、保证金或融资的零售加密交易，依现行法律原则上须在 CFTC 注册的交易所进行。
CFTC 主席 Michael S. Selig 表示：「今天的行动是 CFTC 持续努力的关键一步，确保美国继续保持世界加密资本之都的地位。美国人民理应在加密资产市场获得清晰、确定与消费者保护。」他表示，委员会将依据《商品交易法》的宗旨与总统关于以 CFTC 现有法定权限构建联邦加密资产市场结构的指示推进规则制定，并称新规的目标是「预防」如 FTX 式的欺诈方案，而不仅是事后追诉。
这份预先通知重点征求三方面意见：一，如何在全国统一的监管体制下防止加密资产市场与 CTX 交易中的滥用行为；二，梳理 CFTC 自 2014 年监管加密资产市场部分领域以来业界已普遍接受的做法，为市场参与者提供合规背景说明；三，考虑以规则形式设立指定合约市场注册的一个子类——专为 CTX 设立的「加密资产市场」（crypto asset market）。
预先规则制定通知是正式立规的前期步骤，本身不改变现行规则。公众意见须在该通知刊登于《联邦公报》后 60 天内以书面形式提交，所收意见将在 Regulations.gov 公开，并供委员会评估后续行动，包括是否提出正式规则。

CFTC Seeks Public Comment on a Federal Framework for Crypto Asset Transactions
The Commodity Futures Trading Commission on October 5 published an Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM) seeking public comment on establishing a comprehensive regulatory framework for retail commodity transactions involving crypto assets under section 2(c)(2)(D) of the Commodity Exchange Act — transactions the agency calls CTXs. Retail crypto trades offered with leverage, margin or financing generally must take place on a CFTC-registered exchange under current law.
"Today's action is a critical step in the CFTC's ongoing efforts to ensure America remains the crypto capital of the world," Chairman Michael S. Selig said. "The American people deserve clarity, certainty, and consumer protections in the crypto asset markets." He said the rulemakings would be grounded in the purpose of the Commodity Exchange Act and the President's directive to propose a federal crypto asset market structure using the CFTC's existing statutory authorities, and that the rules would be designed "to prevent, rather than only prosecute after the fact, fraudulent schemes such as FTX."
The notice seeks comment on three areas: how the Commission can prevent abusive practices in crypto asset markets and CTXs under a uniform national regime; industry practices commonly accepted since the Commission began overseeing aspects of crypto asset markets in 2014, to give market participants compliance context; and codifying a subcategory of designated contract market registration — a "crypto asset market" — purpose-built for CTXs.
An ANPRM is an early step before any formal rule is proposed and does not itself change current rules. Comments must be received within 60 days of the notice's publication in the Federal Register, will be posted on Regulations.gov, and will inform potential future agency action, including a rulemaking.
