Comparatively, the first meeting of the US CFTC Innovation Advisory Committee (IAC) will be held from 13:00-16:00 EST on August 20, that is, 01:00-04:00 Beijing time on August 21.

The conference is mainly divided into three parts: the first part discusses crypto regulation from “uncertainty to clarity”, including lack of federal market structure, fragmentation of state-level licenses, overlapping regulatory powers, enforcement regulation, and how to improve regulatory clarity under existing legal authority; the second part discusses the application of AI in transactions, compliance, monitoring, risk management, and “Agentic Finance”, and clearly addresses the intersecting fields of encryption and AI; the third part focuses on predicting markets and event contracts, discussing federal and state regulatory powers, state-level litigation and enforcement, market manipulation, and customers protection and long-term regulatory framework. CFTC Chairman Michael S. Selig, IAC Chairman Walt Lukken, and Designated Federal Officer Michael J. Passalacqua will deliver opening remarks.
