期货和衍生品行业监管动态

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.
