Original: US Retail Traders Could Use Crypto Margin Under Proposed Rules, CFTC Chair Says

The proposal signals a potential shift in how regulated markets treat digital assets as collateral, and it is drawing attention from traders and crypto industry watchers weighing what broader retail access could mean for US markets.
