The CFTC Chair just dropped details on a pilot program—and it's focused on three heavy hitters: Bitcoin, Ethereum, and USDC. This isn't a full rollout. It's a limited test run exploring how these assets could work as collateral in traditional finance frameworks. Why these three? Regulatory clarity, market depth, liquidity. Makes sense if you're dipping your toes into crypto collateralization without diving headfirst into chaos. Worth watching how this unfolds.

Listen, I'm relieved that USDC has been chosen. At least someone is taking stablecoins seriously.

ngl these three options are quite conservative, but they are also indeed wise choices

Hmm, this is finally a sign that traditional finance is yielding.

USDC being chosen makes sense; that's how stablecoins should be played.

The pilot project is finally underway, but there are only three of them.
