Crypto and digital asset derivatives are pushing firms toward 24/7 trading faster than the regulatory and operational framework can keep up.

The CFTC just issued a staff advisory that makes clear where the gaps are—and what firms need to address before extending their hours. Eugene Grygo breaks it down in his latest blog: https://www.ftfnews.com/24-7-derivatives-trading-is-on-the-cftcs-radar/.
