FT: Largest crypto options exchange Deribit is seeking to enter the U.S. market

According to the Financial Times, encouraged by the Trump administration's more crypto-friendly regulatory environment, Deribit, the world's largest crypto options exchange, plans to expand in the US. Its CEO, Luuk Strijers, stated that they are "actively reassessing opportunities in the US." Reportedly, Deribit’s trading volume reached 1.30 trillion USD last year. Additionally, OKX plans to establish its US headquarters in San Jose, California, while Nexo, Wintermute, and DWF Labs also intend to set up operations in the US. The SEC has terminated more than 12 crypto-related cases, and the Department of Justice has disbanded the crypto enforcement task force.
