The U.S. derivatives markets regulator ordered three companies, which also included ZeroEx and Deridex, to cease operations and pay penalties.
The Commodity Futures Trading Commission has charged three decentralized finance operations – Opyn, Inc., ZeroEx , Inc. and Deridex, Inc. – with offering illegal derivatives trading, according to a Thursday statement from the agency.
The three firms face a number of accusations based on their use of blockchain-based protocols and smart contracts to function as trading platforms, according to the CFTC. The U.S. derivatives regulator is ordering Opyn, ZeroEx, and Deridex to cease the activity and pay penalties of $250,000, $200,000, and $100,000, respectively. The companies agreed to these terms to settle the charges.
“Somewhere along the way, DeFi operators got the idea that unlawful transactions become lawful when facilitated by smart contracts,” said CFTC Director of Enforcement Ian McGinley. “They do not.” All three companies are accused of illegally offering leveraged and margined retail commodity transactions using digital assets, the CFTC said.associated with the token oSQTH, is a California-based company that the CFTC also accused of failing to properly register as a swap execution facility, a designated contract market and a futures commission merchant, and also failing to set up a customer identification program to meet Bank Secrecy Act requirements.
