ME News Report, May 29 (UTC+8), the U.S. CFTC issued an approval order, agreeing to list the BTCPERP contract on the designated contract market KalshiEX, a perpetual contract referencing the spot price of Bitcoin, to be traded as a futures contract. Kalshi submitted an application today in accordance with CFTC Regulation 40.3, and after review, the CFTC determined that the BTCPERP contract complies with the Commodity Exchange Act and related regulations. The CFTC also pointed out that perpetual contracts are not suitable for all asset classes, and encouraged market participants to proactively communicate with CFTC staff and submit approvals for perpetual contracts in other asset classes.

Kalshi is aiming to take the CME's place, and the CFTC approved it quite quickly this time.

Encouraging the submission of other asset approval requests = hinting at a desire to approve more, with the regulator’s stance softening

The perpetual fee rate advantage of offshore CEXs still exists, but compliance premiums will attract institutional funds.

The spot price underlying perpetual contracts—this design is quite clever, as it bypasses certain regulatory-sensitive points.
