Community Trust Score Verified 89 % Real Verified 36 votes Updated 15 hours ago Blockchain.com wants in. Really in. The company has filed applications for both a futures commission merchant registration and a designated contract market license in the United States, a move that would let it run its own exchange rather than piggybacking on other platforms. The filing for FCM and DCM licenses by Blockchain.com signifies a strategic move towards greater autonomy in the U.S. derivatives market, potentially increasing competition among existing exchanges.
