Commodity Futures Trading Commission
Coverage portrays the CFTC as active on two fronts: proposing initial crypto-market regulations that distinguish crypto assets from other commodities 910, and seeking to classify sports, political, cultural and weather event contracts as financial swaps amid a prediction-markets legal fight 1. Kalshi is also reported to have filed unusual oil-linked contract proposals with the CFTC, including a never-expiring contract and one settling only every decade 345. The material includes little direct debate about the CFTC itself; most disagreement concerns whether futures and prediction-market pricing reliably forecast underlying markets 28.

The stories
- ○ a voice, on the left
- ◌ a voice raising half of these
- ● a subject, on the right, under its story
- ⌒ a line is a voice raising a subject — thicker, more items; colour is the story
The stories this entity travels in: on the right, each story with the subjects seen alongside it; on the left, the voices that raised them, and a line for every subject a voice raised, bundled by story. Tap a voice to light everything it raises, a subject for who raised it, a story for its own lines. The crumb goes back.
