期貨和衍生品行業監管動態
The order finds from approximately October 2021 through at least March 27,
2023, Falcon Labs solicited or accepted orders for digital asset derivatives from
customers located in the U.S. Throughout this period, Falcon Labs functioned as an
intermediary facilitating customer trading on various digital asset exchanges,
including institutional customers located in the U.S. Falcon Labs provided its
customers with direct access to exchanges by first creating a main account in its own
name and then creating associated sub-accounts. The exchanges generally did not
require, and Falcon Labs generally did not provide, customer-identifying information
for the sub-account holders.
The order finds Falcon Labs collected net fees of approximately $1,179,008 from
customers entering into digital asset derivative transactions intermediated by Falcon
Labs. As recognized in the order, Falcon Labs voluntarily improved its controls for
identifying the location of its customers after the CFTC filed its complaint against
Changpeng Zhao, Binance Holdings Limited, Binance Holdings (IE) Limited,
Binance (Services) Holdings Limited and Samuel Lim, which alleged in relevant part
that prime brokers opened “sub-accounts” through which U.S.-located customers
traded digital asset derivatives on the Binance platform. [See CFTC Press Release No.
