The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) stated in its latest court filing that CME only claims increased competition without reasonably explaining the existence of imminent financial harm, which is insufficient to qualify for a lawsuit challenging its perpetual contract policy. The CFTC pointed out that after the policy adjustment, CME's cryptocurrency futures trading volume has actually increased.In May of this year, the CFTC approved Kalshi's first Bitcoin perpetual contract and stated that it would regulate such products on a case-by-case basis under futures regulations. CME, on the other hand, believes that perpetual contracts do not have an expiration date and should be classified as swaps rather than futures, subject to a different regulatory framework. Last month, the CFTC requested a federal judge to dismiss the case, and this filing further elaborated on its rebuttal to CME's standing in the lawsuit.The CFTC also noted that CME had previously informed investors that it had not heard customer demand for perpetual contracts, and that such products could not replace its existing futures, and that it should not take different positions in court and during earnings calls. TD Cowen policy analyst Jaret Seiberg believes that CME may still have the upper hand regarding its standing in the lawsuit and the argument that the products should be classified as swaps. However, he is concerned that if the perpetual contract market continues to grow during the litigation, it may become more complicated to dismantle this market if CME wins.

On October 15, 2026, U.S. District Judge Alvin Hellerstein denied the motion to revoke the $5 million settlement agreement reached between the cryptocurrency exchange Gemini and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), with the fines paid and permanent injunctions remaining in effect. Previously, the CFTC had stated that the original lawsuit should not have been filed. The controversy stemmed from Gemini's involvement in proposed Bitcoin futures contracts.The CFTC filed the lawsuit in June 2022, accusing it of misleading regulators regarding trading safeguards, customer financing, special rate arrangements, and activities that could affect contract pricing; the parties settled in January 2025, with Gemini neither admitting nor denying the related allegations.

The judge found that the relevant circumstances existed prior to the settlement, and the change in enforcement focus was insufficient to revoke a binding court order; the CFTC still retains enforcement discretion.
