The crypto exchange now holds a derivatives clearing organisation (DCO) licence in the US.
It can offer cleared margin derivatives, including crypto perpetuals, to US customers.
Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles
Crypto.com announced that it has received a derivatives licence from the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), which will allow it to offer margin derivatives in the United States.
The licence has been awarded to the local affiliate of the global crypto exchange, Crypto.com Derivatives North America (CDNA), which has had its existing authorisation amended to a derivatives clearing organisation (DCO) licence. Until now, the unit offered fully collateralised derivatives and prediction market services.

“The full stack of CFTC-approved derivatives licences allows Crypto.com to seamlessly provide clients with the most comprehensive and integrated derivatives experience, alongside Crypto.com’s additional product offerings including spot markets, prediction markets, stocks, qualified custody, credit and debit cards, and more,” said Kris Marszalek, Co-Founder and CEO of Crypto.com.
The crypto exchange elaborated that its US unit started discussions with the CFTC in 2023 and filed its request to amend its DCO order on 7 June 2024.
CFTC Pushing to Ease Crypto Regulations
The licensing came as the CFTC is easing regulations around cryptocurrencies in the US, amid a push by the Donald Trump administration.
The agency recently revealed that it will launch an initiative to allow the use of tokenised collateral, including stablecoins, in derivatives markets.
The CFTC is also exploring whether to allow the European Union’s MiCA-authorised crypto platforms to operate in the American markets. The agency additionally wants to permit trading of “spot crypto asset contracts” on registered futures exchanges in the country.
“We sincerely appreciate the partnership with Acting Chairman Pham and the CFTC, who are working hard to carry out the crypto agenda of President Trump,” Marszalek added.
