๐Ÿš€ 24 Exchange Receives SEC Approval For Extended Trading Hours

According to Odaily, 24 Exchange, a startup backed by Point72 Ventures, has received approval from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to operate the 24X National Exchange. This makes it the first national securities exchange in the United States to allow trading for 23 hours a day from Monday to Friday. The launch of 24X will occur in two phases, with the initial phase set to begin in the second half of 2025. During this phase, trading hours will be from 4 a.m. to 7 p.m. Eastern Time.

Once the public data feed for broadcasting U.S. stock prices is upgraded to support continuous operation, 24X will be permitted to extend its trading hours to include nighttime sessions. These sessions will run from 8 p.m. on Sunday to 7 p.m. on Friday, with a one-hour pause from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. to accommodate routine software upgrades and functionality tests. Dmitri Galinov, CEO and founder of 24X, stated, "Traders face the greatest risk when markets in their regions are closed. We aim to mitigate this issue by facilitating around-the-clock trading."

๐Ÿš€ U.S. Regulators Propose Supportive Measures for Cryptocurrency Markets

According to PANews, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Paul Atkins and Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Acting Chairman Caroline Pham have jointly proposed several initiatives aimed at supporting cryptocurrency markets. Among these is a proposal for a '24/7 market' similar to traditional financial markets, designed to align the U.S. economy with the pace of digital asset markets.

This policy would enable continuous online trading on stock exchanges. For 154 years since Wall Street introduced continuous trading, such markets have adhered to strict trading schedules, open only during specific business hours on weekdays since 1985. However, the chairpersons indicated that adjustments might be necessary to keep up with constantly active markets like cryptocurrency, gold, and foreign exchange.

The chairpersons also suggested easing restrictions for 'innovators' to launch event contracts in prediction markets and allowing perpetual derivatives contractsโ€”common in offshore cryptocurrency markets but currently heavily restricted in the U.S.โ€”to be freely traded between securities and commodity exchanges. Another proposal involves establishing an 'innovation exemption' for DeFi protocols offering spot cryptocurrency and perpetual derivatives contract trading. The chairpersons noted that these proposals align with a report released by the Trump administration in July, which directed agencies to relax many restrictions on U.S. cryptocurrency trading.
