- Kraken Launches CFTC-Regulated Bitcoin and Crypto Perpetual Futures for U.S. Traders
Kraken has launched CFTC-regulated Bitcoin and crypto perpetual futures for U.S. traders via Bitnomial, a CFTC-licensed exchange acquired by Kraken's parent company Payward. The contracts, which use an 8-hour funding rate mechanism, allow traders to manage perpetual futures alongside other products in a single account. The launch follows CFTC guidance enabling regulated platforms to offer such products.
