Big shift happening in traditional finance. During a live CNBC segment, the CFTC Chair dropped some serious news—Bitcoin can now serve as collateral in regulated markets.
This isn't just regulatory chatter anymore. We're watching real institutional infrastructure get built around digital assets. When a federal regulator publicly validates BTC as legitimate collateral on national television, that's the kind of milestone the industry has been grinding toward for years.
The U.S. market isn't just tolerating crypto now. It's integrating it into the financial plumbing. What seemed impossible half a decade ago is becoming standard operating procedure. The dominoes keep falling, one policy update at a time.

Damn, the CFTC really pulled through this time. Using BTC as collateral should have happened a long time ago.

Institutional recognition is just the beginning; the key is how to price the subsequent collateral risk premium.

ngl, this time it's really different. Using BTC as collateral should have happened long ago... the institutions must be very happy.

Wait, did the CFTC really say on TV that Bitcoin can be used as collateral? This is no longer a joke; structural changes are really happening.

btc as collateral... wait, is this real? Did the CFTC chairman say this on CNBC? It feels like the large-scale entry of institutions is not far off.

NGL, I really broke my defense this time. Who would've thought five years ago that BTC would be used as collateral... Now it's officially announced on CNBC. Traditional finance is really starting to back down.
