Its really good to see CFTC’s Chairman J. Christopher Giancarlo really very vocal about the cryptosphere and very liberal in terms of its ability to change the financial landscape of its employee but giving them their employees a chance and freedom to trade and invest into cryptos. He really sees good benefits that it can bring to its people unlike those around the banking system who put a strict compliance to its employees not to deal with it. We can't really ignore that fact the bitcoin and crypto's are here to stay. And no matter what goverments and banks around the world will do, no once can stop this revolutions. Kudos to Chairman Giancarlo for having a open mind and opening doors to its employees. And I'm sure that they are pleased with this news.

This can be a big welcome development because in a way this is a recognition of cryptocurrency as something that is not anymore illegal otherwise this agency and that of SEC will turn down the requests of their employees to get involved with Bitcoin and other crypto assets. Slowly but surely cryptocurrency is now gaining a big foothold in the country and hopefully soon there would be a clear-cut regulations set up specific for cryptocurrency in USA.

The agency granted this authorization after CFTC employees sent numerous inquiries about investing in cryptocurrencies.
