A U.S. commodities regulator told cotton producers that the regulatory framework used for crypto perpetual futures may not align well with traditional agricultural commodity markets. According to Cointelegraph, Michael Selig said the agency’s approach to regulating crypto perpetual futures may not be a “natural fit for traditional commodity markets, like agriculture.”

Selig’s remarks were directed at U.S. cotton producers and focused on how regulatory models developed for crypto-related derivatives could differ from the needs and structure of long-established commodity markets. He indicated that applying the same approach across both areas may be challenging, suggesting that agriculture and other traditional commodities may require different considerations than those used for crypto perpetual futures.
