The CFTC Chair just dropped some interesting news—Bitcoin can now be used as collateral in derivatives trading. This opens up fresh possibilities for institutional players looking to leverage their BTC holdings in more sophisticated ways. Could be a game-changer for how crypto integrates with traditional financial instruments.

Huh? So this is what they mean by "compliance," huh? Slowly funneling the institutional folks in.

Well, now the institutions have new tricks up their sleeves. Will using BTC as collateral really change the game? It still depends on how it is actually implemented.

Wait, does this mean the liquidity depth of the collateral pool needs to be recalculated... Will institutional access directly expand the spread?

It should have been like this a long time ago. Institutions finally have a legitimate reason to hoard coins, haha.

Oh no, the institutions are starting to play tricks again. Bitcoin as collateral is really breaking out of the circle now.

Hmm... now traditional finance really has to take us seriously. Using BTC as collateral is truly impressive.

Hmm... institutions are going to suck blood again; retail investors, forget it.
