Resumen

The US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has formed a new CEO Innovation Council, bringing together executives from both the blockchain industry and traditional finance. The council will focus on market structure developments in derivatives markets, with discussions covering tokenization, crypto assets, 24/7 trading, perpetual contracts, prediction markets, and blockchain infrastructure. Participants include CEOs from crypto exchanges and prediction markets such as Polymarket, Kraken, and Gemini, as well as leaders from traditional exchanges like CME Group and Nasdaq. This initiative follows recent CFTC efforts, including a pilot program allowing the use of Bitcoin, Ether, and USDC as margin collateral. Acting Chairman Caroline Pham emphasized the agency’s commitment to engaging with the crypto market and establishing clear regulatory guidelines.

The US Commodity Futures Trading Commission has added a host of blockchain industry executives alongside counterparts from traditional finance as part of the agency’s new CEO Innovation Council.

According to an announcement on Wednesday, the CEO Innovation Council will discuss market structure developments relating to the derivatives markets overseen by the CFTC.

The discussion topics will primarily be about “tokenization, crypto assets, 24/7 trading, perpetual contracts, prediction markets and blockchain market infrastructure.”

The list of participants includes the bosses of crypto exchanges and prediction markets such as Polymarket, Kalshi, Kraken, Gemini, Bitnomial, Crypto.com and Bullish.

Alongside the crypto CEOs, the counterparts from traditional finance come from major exchanges such as CME Group, Cboe Global Markets, Nasdaq, Intercontinental Exchange and the London Stock Exchange Group.

“We are building on the success of the CFTC Crypto CEO Forum and the SEC-CFTC Joint Roundtable with our CFTC CEO Innovation Council, specifically focused on market structure developments in derivatives markets,” said acting CFTC Chairman Caroline Pham.

CFTC working to improve derivative market infrastructure and regulation

The latest move by the CFTC comes just a few days after acting chairman Pham announced a crypto collateral derivatives market pilot program.

The pilot will enable CFTC-registered futures commission merchants to accept Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH) and Circle’s stablecoin USDC for margin collateral, as the CFTC tests out the integration of crypto in regulated markets.

Pham’s leadership has so far indicated that the CFTC is open to actively engaging with the crypto market and establishing clear guidelines for the sector, something that has previously been seen as more challenging for the US Securities and Exchange Commission.

Earlier this year, the CFTC also unveiled the Crypto CEO Forum, consisting of CEOs from major firms such as Coinbase, Circle and Ripple, with Pham vowing to “deliver on the Trump Administration’s promise of ensuring that America leads the way on economic opportunity.”

Within Strategy's Framework, STRC's Dividend Yield Remains at 12% as Share Price Stays Below Par Value

Michael Saylor, Executive Chairman of Strategy (MSTR), confirmed that the dividend rate for its STRC perpetual preferred shares will remain at 12.00% through August 2026. The rate has increased from 9% at its July 2025 launch to the current high via a "ratchet" mechanism, which permanently raises the rate by 0.5% whenever the share price falls below $95. This mechanism is intended to push the price back toward its $100 par value and support Strategy's "at-the-market" (ATM) program for issuing new shares to fund Bitcoin purchases. However, the mechanism has not worked as intended. STRC shares closed at $89.46 on July 31, remaining about 10-11% below par value despite the record-high dividend. Competition from rival Strive's higher-yielding SATA securities has pressured demand. The persistent discount has forced Strategy to suspend new STRC issuances via its ATM program, limiting this funding channel for Bitcoin acquisitions. STRC's struggles reflect Bitcoin's own volatility, as the preferred shares historically move in tandem. Analysts have warned the ratchet structure carries long-term, one-way risk. A law firm is investigating Strategy's ability to maintain dividend payments if Bitcoin's price stays low. Retail investors own roughly 83% of outstanding STRC shares, a group seen as prone to panic selling during downturns. In response, Strategy has established financial reserves, including a liquidity cushion covering about 26 months of dividend/interest obligations, and a $2 billion share buyback program alongside a Bitcoin monetization framework, though the company emphasized it is not obligated to sell any Bitcoin.

Analyst: Bitcoin's Price Will Drop to $60k in August, Then Rebound to $70k

Financial analyst Andrey Poroshin has provided a new forecast for Bitcoin's price dynamics in August. Poroshin, an analyst at the Bitbanker exchange, expects the cryptocurrency market to experience a downturn this month, with prices retesting the $60,000 level due to a lack of supportive macroeconomic catalysts. He noted that the recent US Federal Reserve decision to hold interest rates did not significantly impact the market, while inflation remains above the 2% target. Poroshin stated that Bitcoin is ending July under pressure from moderate volatility and a lack of new macroeconomic stimuli, leading to continued market caution. According to his base scenario, Bitcoin will drop to a range of $60,000 to $62,000 before recovering to $70,000. He pointed out that even $70,000 remains below the cost of mining in the US, which has prompted some miners to shift towards AI data center operations. Poroshin cited the winding down of BitMEX's operations as a potential catalyst for a price rebound, suggesting the exit of weaker players often coincides with market reversals and reduced short-term selling pressure. He believes Bitcoin is currently less susceptible to geopolitical shocks, such as the Iran-US conflict, and does not expect significant market changes in August related to the pending CLARITY Act. Looking ahead, Poroshin forecasts that September will bring more active price fluctuations driven by potential Fed rate decisions and possible discussions or approval of the CLARITY Act.
