Crypto.com has completed registration with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), gaining qualification to offer single-stock futures trading in the US—extending the crypto exchange's product lineup into individual stocks themselves.
CEO Kris Marszalek said the company is simultaneously in talks with both the SEC and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), with plans to further roll out single-stock perpetual futures in the US. Perpetual contracts have no expiration date and are a common form of derivative on crypto exchanges; applying this type of contract to individual stocks would require clearing both the SEC's securities oversight and the CFTC's derivatives regulations—meaning both agencies would need to sign off.
Crypto.com has not yet announced a launch timeline for single-stock perpetual futures, nor has it specified which underlying stocks would be covered.
