Addition to the list does not mean that the CFTC considers the entities to have violated any law. Rather, it serves as a warning to those involved in the ecosystem, effectively telling users to be wary of such matters as potential fraud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">NEWS: The RED List provides information to U.S. customers about unregistered foreign entities acting in a capacity that requires registration with the CFTC. Thirty-four new entities were added to the list today.

In the view of many regulators around the world, especially with respect to trading binary options, these platforms are illegal. For example, the U.K. and EU have banned binary options trading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The notice describes why an entity may be added to the list, which mostly has to do with not having registered with the agency when dealing with trading binary options and foreign currency, among other things. It reads,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>\u201cA firm is added to the RED List when the CFTC determines, from investigative leads and public inquiries, that it is not registered with the Commission and appears to be acting in a capacity that requires registration, such as trading binary options, foreign currency (forex), or other products. The Commodity Exchange Act generally requires intermediaries in the derivatives industry to register with the CFTC.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>There are now over 200 entities on the RED list. The CFTC is not slowing down when it comes to regulation and, along with several other U.S. agencies, is looking to clamp down on the crypto market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>United States Gearing Up for Wide-Ranging Crypto Regulation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The CFTC is one of many financial regulators in the U.S. that is working on crypto regulation. The country has finally ramped up its focus on crypto regulation, and the growth in crypto adoption and the recent market crash sparked by <a href=\"https:\/\/en.ethereumworldnews.com\/ust-depeg-catches-attention-of-us-treasury-secretary-yellen-stablecoin-regulation-by-eoy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">notorious incidents<\/a> have spurred them on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As such, it appears that they are collectively working on different aspects of the market. The U.S. Treasury, for example, is focused on <a href=\"https:\/\/en.ethereumworldnews.com\/us-treasury-secretary-yellen-cbdc-diminish-the-proliferation-of-stablecoins-both-can-coexist\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">stablecoin regulation<\/a>, while the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is working on <a href=\"https:\/\/en.ethereumworldnews.com\/sec-hurting-americans-invest-crypto\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">securities laws<\/a> for the crypto market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The world will keep a close eye on the U.S. proceeds, as many will look to it for their own stances on crypto. At any rate, it seems like crypto regulation is arriving soon, and this will have a marked impact on the market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Commodity Futures Trading Commission has added 34 crypto entities to its RED list.
