TechFlame News: Mike Selig, Chairman of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), stated that despite a reduction of approximately one-quarter in the CFTC's staff since 2025, the agency has become more efficient in monitoring and investigations through the introduction of AI and automation technologies. Mike Selig confirmed that the CFTC is conducting multiple investigations into prediction markets to address insider trading, fraud, and market manipulation, emphasizing the agency's zero-tolerance stance toward illegal market activities. Additionally, the Digital Asset Market Transparency Act, currently advancing in the Senate, proposes to place the CFTC at the core of regulating non-security cryptocurrency transactions, covering assets such as Bitcoin and ETH.
