ChainCatcher news, according to Cointelegraph, the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (CIRO) released the latest "List of Securities Eligible for Reduced Margin Requirements" on February 5, explicitly excluding cryptocurrency funds from the reduced margin policy. CIRO stated that considering the volatility of crypto assets, liquidity risks, and regulatory uncertainties, this policy will remain in effect until further notice.

According to the regulations, securities eligible for reduced margin requirements must meet several conditions, including a price volatility not exceeding 25%, a public float market capitalization of over 100 million Canadian dollars, and an average daily trading volume of 25,000 shares, among other requirements. This move will increase the leverage trading costs for crypto funds.
