In a significant development for the cryptocurrency market, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) has surpassed the renowned global cryptocurrency exchange, <a href="https://www.binance.com/en/markets?ref=16863683">Binance</a>, as the new leader in Bitcoin futures open interest. This shift in power comes as Bitcoin recently surpassed $37,000, its highest value in almost 18 months. 
Bitcoin futures open interest is an important measure in the world of futures and options markets since it represents the total number of outstanding contracts held by traders. This indicator effectively measures the balance between long and short positions (buyers and sellers). CME’s increase in Bitcoin futures open interest has already surpassed Binance, which has piqued the eye of market observers. 
This odd development was spotted by intelligence expert James Seyffart in response to a tweet by Will Clemente. This switching raises concerns about the consequences of CME’s rising dominance on the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), particularly in light of prior concerns about market depth and potential manipulation in Bitcoin markets.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has played a key role in the regulation of Bitcoin-related financial instruments, particularly exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Concerns regarding the breadth and integrity of Bitcoin markets, as well as the possibility of market manipulation, influenced the regulator’s decision-making process. Because of these issues, the SEC has been hesitant to approve multiple spot Bitcoin ETF filings in recent years. 
Notably, industry titans like BlackRock and Fidelity have suffered difficulties when the SEC considered their filings “inadequate” due to the omission of critical assertions about the markets that would support the value of their proposed Bitcoin ETFs.

The CME’s increased dominance in Bitcoin futures open interest may have an impact on the SEC’s attitude on Bitcoin ETFs. The SEC has repeatedly underlined the importance of strong market structures and safeguards in bitcoin marketplaces to prevent market manipulation. 
CME’s substantial experience and reputation in traditional derivatives markets may provide more legitimacy to the bitcoin industry as a whole. The exchange has established itself as a dependable venue for derivatives trading by complying to stringent regulatory requirements. 
The SEC’s worries, however, are not confined to market depth. As cryptocurrencies are relatively new and subject to high price fluctuation, the regulator has also been attentive in addressing potential market manipulation.
