Coinbase receives CFTC exemption to access global derivatives, JPMorgan CEO criticizes compliance legislation

According to BBX data, the global competition between crypto compliance infrastructure and traditional financial capital entered a heated stage yesterday, with brokerage giants and old money on Wall Street clashing over the advancement of legislation. The core dynamics are as follows:

• Coinbase receives CFTC 16-page no-action letter authorization: Coinbase Global, Inc. (NASDAQ: $COIN) officially announced that the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has issued a 16-page "no-action letter" to its subsidiary CFM. This authorizes CFM to officially offer perpetual contracts and options for "digital commodities" such as BTC, ETH, SOL, and DOGE to U.S. institutional clients through the foreign exchange Deribit FZE, which it previously acquired for $2.9 billion. The letter also allows clients to directly transfer digital assets and stablecoins to Deribit FZE as collateral.

• Dimon publicly declares war on the CLARITY Act: Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE: $JPM), publicly expressed strong opposition to the CLARITY Act currently advancing in the Senate during a Fox Business program. Dimon warned that the act allows crypto companies to pay users "yield rewards" in stablecoins, effectively bypassing the capital and compliance standards of traditional banking. He formed a coalition with the American Bankers Association, publicly committing to "fight to the end" against this legislation.
