U.S. SEC Chair Paul Atkins and CFTC Acting Chair Caroline Pham proposed a '24/7 Markets' policy, emphasizing collaboration on trading, set to culminate in a joint roundtable on September 29, 2025.

The <a href="https://www.sec.gov/newsroom/press-releases/2025-112-sec-cftc-issue-joint-statement-regulatory-harmonization-efforts-will-co-host-roundtable-sept-29" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">U.S. SEC and CFTC</a> have introduced a new 24/7 Markets policy aimed at expanding accessibility to digital asset trading. This move is designed to foster a collaborative regulatory framework benefiting both agencies and stakeholders.
SEC Chair Paul Atkins and CFTC Acting Chair Caroline Pham jointly announced this initiative, emphasizing the importance of regulatory harmony. As Atkins stated, "It is a new day at the SEC and the CFTC, and today we reaffirm the need to ensure regulation does not stand in the way of progress." They aim to align their agencies to support the growing demand for continuous trading opportunities in the crypto market.
The new policy is projected to impact digital asset markets by potentially increasing liquidity and trading volume. Enhanced market access is expected to spur investor interest and participation, particularly in major cryptocurrencies like BTC and ETH.
This collaboration seeks to eliminate previous regulatory inconsistencies, promoting technological advancements. The policy anticipates broad implications on <a href="https://www.sec.gov/newsroom/press-releases/2025-110-sec-cftc-staff-issue-joint-statement-trading-certain-spot-crypto-asset-products" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">crypto derivatives, spot markets,</a> and related financial services, encouraging innovation.
The roundtable on September 29, 2025, will be vital for stakeholders. It aims to address cross-margining and new product categories in crypto. Participants are keenly anticipating detailed discussions that could shape the future landscape.
Past collaborations lacked this scope and foresight, signaling a paradigm shift. Success hinges on operational feasibility and compliance.
