FTX's derivatives wing withdrew a proposed plan to directly settle crypto derivatives products from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) on Friday, Bloomberg reported citing a person familiar with the matter. LedgerX, which does business as FTX US Derivatives after being acquired in 2021, filed a plan to directly settle crypto derivatives, cutting out intermediaries, earlier this year. The move met with opposition from traditional financial players, such as Cboe, which warned that there may be investor safeguard and protection concerns. The proposal was under review by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), which oversees derivatives products in the U.S. CFTC Chair Rostin Behnam, while not endorsing the plan directly, nonetheless called it "unique" earlier this year.
