In September, Crypto.com secured approval from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to offer margined derivatives through its CDNA subsidiary. @cryptocom has secured approval from the CFTC to offer margined derivatives, including on cryptocurrencies. #CFTC #Crypto https://t.co/AZgIiLZvKg — Cryptonews.com (@cryptonews) September 29, 2025 The firm’s U.S. arm, Crypto.com | FCM, also became a registered Futures Commission Merchant, allowing it to provide leveraged derivatives for both retail and institutional clients. Last week, Crypto.com filed an application with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to obtain a National Trust Bank Charter. @cryptocom has applied for a National Trust Bank License from the @USOCC , placing the company alongside other crypto firms pursuing a federal charter. #OCC #License #Crypto https://t.co/WL6erDAsjE — Cryptonews.com (@cryptonews) October 24, 2025 The move could make it one of the few crypto firms with federal recognition, expanding its custody and staking services across multiple blockchains, including its native Cronos network. The company also recently announced an integration with Morpho , the second-largest DeFi lending protocol, to introduce stablecoin lending and wrapped asset deposits on Cronos. Under the Truth Social integration, users who hold “Truth gems,” a reward earned through engagement on the platform, will be able to convert them into Cronos’ native token (CRO) and use them to buy Truth Predict contracts. This follows the companies’ earlier decision to establish Trump Media Group CRO Strategy, Inc., a joint venture intended to manage a digital asset treasury focused on CRO. Beta testing for Truth Predict will begin soon, with a full launch planned for U.S. users later this year. Trump Media said it intends to expand internationally once regulatory approvals are secured.
