CFTC warns of rapid financial market shifts over next decade, urges preparation for mass tokenisation

The head of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission urged preparation for large-scale tokenisation and the spread of on-chain finance. Michael Selig said regulators should adjust existing frameworks to expand adoption of blockchain and artificial intelligence and prepare for 24-hour trading. He highlighted real-world asset tokenisation as a key innovation and pointed to steps to broaden stablecoin collateral use. The agency is also taking a differentiated approach to 24-hour trading across asset classes.
