What does the CFTC regulate?

[mendez]

The CFTC oversees trading in commodity futures, options, and swaps, which can be tied to agricultural products, energy, metals, interest rates, stock indices, and increasingly, digital assets such as Bitcoin and Ether derivatives. The agency monitors exchanges, clearinghouses, and intermediaries to ensure compliance with regulations and fair trading practices. Its scope also includes investigating and taking enforcement actions against fraud, market manipulation, and illegal trading schemes in these sectors.
