Bitnomial has launched the first CFTC-regulated spot crypto exchange in the United States, marking a significant regulatory milestone. Operating under Bitnomial Exchange LLC and Bitnomial Clearinghouse LLC, the platform offers a unified trading format for spot, futures, and options. Notably, XRP is listed as collateral from the outset, transitioning it into a fully regulated asset in U.S. markets. The exchange is set to launch the week of December 8, 2025, providing capital efficiency benefits for both retail and institutional traders.
