Statement Of CFTC Commissioner Caroline D. Pham On Reasonable Accommodation
Date 23/05/2024
Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Commissioner Caroline D. Pham released the following statement regarding the CFTC’s administrative order regarding J.P. Morgan Securities LLC announced today:
“I find it deeply disturbing that the CFTC did not provide reasonable accommodation to respect a religious holiday. The CFTC demanded that legal submissions be produced on Yom Kippur. I do not believe the CFTC would have done the same thing if it were Christmas Day. This raises concerns regarding unequal treatment under the law based on religion. The CFTC is not above the Constitution—no matter what. These actions are yet another example of why I have called for a GAO study on the CFTC’s internal procedures. While I support this significant settlement and remind all registrants that they must ensure diligent supervision under our regulations, that is no excuse for the CFTC’s apparent lack of respect for rights.”

Commentary On The SEC's Approval Of Ethereum ETFs: Greg Moritz, COO And Co-founder, Alt Tab Capital
Date 23/05/2024
Greg Moritz commented “The SEC's approval of Ethereum spot ETFs is a huge win for investors everywhere. There is massive demand for digital assets and for too long access to them has been restricted to either the technically savvy or the already wealthy. We see the largest financial institutions in the world creating products to meet that demand and now we see a regulatory decision that embraces progress.
“Perhaps the more interesting question the ETF approval poses, is that if it is possible for ETH, what other altcoins is it possible for?”
