Latest Crypto News: CFTC Sends New Crypto Rules to White House as DigiTap Pushes Past $12.2M With 366M $TAP Sold - StreetInsider

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission has advanced a new set of crypto-related rules to the White House for review, a procedural step that typically precedes formal publication. The move signals that federal regulators are continuing to formalize how digital asset markets are supervised, though the substance of the rules has not been disclosed. For market participants, the key takeaway is that the U.S. regulatory perimeter around crypto is still being actively drawn.

Separately, DigiTap reported surpassing $12.2 million in funds raised, with 366 million $TAP tokens sold, according to StreetInsider. The figures point to sustained appetite for early-stage token offerings even as the regulatory backdrop remains unsettled — a contrast worth watching, since presale activity often draws heightened scrutiny from agencies weighing how such tokens should be classified.

What to watch: the content of the CFTC proposal once it clears White House review, and whether it addresses token sales, trading venues, or both. Regulatory clarity, or its absence, tends to shape where projects base operations and how investors assess risk.
