The U.S. CFTC may allow the use of stablecoins as tokenized collateral in the derivatives market

According to CoinDesk, sources say that the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is developing a tokenized collateral policy, which is expected to be released early next year.

The policy may allow the use of stablecoins as acceptable tokenized collateral in the derivatives market, potentially starting with a pilot program at U.S. clearinghouses, and implementing stricter regulations requiring more disclosures, such as position sizes, large traders, and trading volumes, as well as more detailed reporting of operational events.
