Ondo Perps CEO says US perpetuals market offers major opportunity, stops short of confirming launch

Ondo Perps CEO David Wells said on Sept. 29 that the U.S. market for perpetual futures presents a "huge opportunity" and that it makes sense for Ondo to explore that segment. He did not confirm whether the company plans to launch a perpetuals product in the United States. Wells also said any product built for U.S. users could differ from what Ondo currently offers outside the country. The remarks point to interest in the U.S. perpetuals market, while leaving open the question of whether and when Ondo may enter it.

Coinbase wins CFTC approval for a DCO, but only for fully collateralized crypto derivatives

Coinbase has received approval from the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission to establish a derivatives clearing organization, adding what the company described as the final piece of its end-to-end derivatives infrastructure. The market reaction was muted. On the day the news was announced, Coinbase shares fell 1.70%, while BTC and shares of Circle, the issuer of USDC, were also down. The approval comes with a narrow scope. The DCO license allows Coinbase to clear only fully collateralized futures, options, and swaps. It does not extend to the high-leverage margin products that dominate retail trading activity and liquidity. That limitation helps explain why traders did not treat the development as an immediate earnings catalyst or a direct change to the user experience. Still, the move carries broader strategic weight. The report argues that Coinbase is building control over clearing infrastructure inside a regulated framework, while USDC is being pushed beyond its role as a trading medium into a regulated settlement asset that can operate on a 24/7 basis. It also places Coinbase’s self-built route alongside Kraken’s acquisition-led path through Bitnomial, highlighting a wider contest over who controls collateral standards, settlement timing, and product rollout in the U.S. crypto derivatives market.

Coinbase Bitcoin Premium Index stays negative for four straight days, last at -0.0082%

Coinbase’s Bitcoin Premium Index has remained below zero for four consecutive days, according to CoinGlass data cited by BlockBeats on Sept. 26. The latest reading was -0.0082%, a level the report said pointed to renewed weakness in U.S. buying power. The index tracks the Bitcoin price gap between Coinbase Pro and Binance and is commonly watched as a gauge of demand conditions in the U.S. market. A negative reading usually means Bitcoin is quoted lower on Coinbase than on Binance, which can reflect softer buying interest in the U.S. or heavier selling pressure. The report also noted that the indicator alone should not be used to conclude that institutional capital is leaving the market. Earlier, on Aug. 24, the index turned positive at 0.0052% for the first time since May 19, briefly ending what had been a record 97-day stretch of negative premium.

Polymarket’s growth push drew fraud alarms, legal scrutiny and internal turmoil, WSJ report says

A Wall Street Journal report says Polymarket’s rapid expansion has been accompanied by compliance gaps, fraud attempts, software failures and mounting legal pressure. The report, based on interviews with current and former employees and investors, says a February attack on Polymarket US involved stolen debit cards and an attempted theft of at least $10 million, with a payment partner classifying more than 80% of deposit transactions as fraudulent at the peak of the incident. Former regulators told the Journal the scale of the attempted fraud and the company’s response were unusual for commodities and gambling businesses. The report also describes a broader pattern inside the company under CEO Shayne Coplan, including pressure to keep growing, executive departures, internal investigations, product rollouts that allegedly outpaced testing, and disputes over anti-money-laundering controls. At the same time, Polymarket has continued to pursue fundraising, high-profile partnerships and a larger US presence. The company said it is committed to accurate, fair and transparent markets, works with regulators and law enforcement, and has processes to detect, review and address suspicious activity. The Journal report also says Polymarket has been dealing with federal and state lawsuits, questions over whether prediction markets amount to unlicensed gambling, and a second fraud incident in July that affected nearly 500 users.
