CFTC seeks public opinion on perpetual contracts and 24/7 trading model

According to the official website of the CFTC, the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is soliciting public opinions on two market trends: one is to expand trading hours in the derivatives market to 24/7 (24/6 or 24/5), and the other is to assess the use and risks of perpetual derivatives in the derivatives market. The CFTC emphasizes that this move aims to proactively respond to changes in market structure, safeguard market vitality, and protect the rights and interests of participants. The public can submit their opinions online before May 22nd Beijing time.
