The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has approved the first batch of perpetual futures contracts linked to U.S. individual stocks, allowing such products to be listed and traded on regulated exchanges in the U.S. for the first time.
This means that U.S. investors will be able to trade individual stock perpetual contracts through regulated markets, further expanding the crossover between traditional stocks and the cryptocurrency derivatives market.
