U.S. financial reform group Better Markets has publicly opposed the Commodity Futures Trading Commission\'s plan to oversee some retail cryptocurrency trading. It said the proposed framework could provide weaker investor protections than Securities and Exchange Commission oversight.

Better Markets also questioned the plan\'s legal basis and market-structure risks.
