CFTC Opens Offshore Crypto Trading to U.S. Investors

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has taken a major step towards increasing U.S. participation in the global crypto market by approving offshore crypto exchanges to register as Foreign Boards of Trade (FBOTs). This new advisory, effective August 28, 2025, allows U.S. traders to legally access these platforms. This move could significantly boost liquidity and trading volume for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other altcoins.
