Terry Duffy, the CEO of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange Group, expressed great concern about the recently approved perpetual contracts by U.S. regulators. Terry Duffy stated that perpetual contracts have almost no practical use for institutional investors, yet expose retail investors to excessive risk. He completely disagreed with the CFTC's decision to approve the first batch of crypto perpetual contracts after a rapid review and mentioned that he had called the CFTC chairman to express his concerns.

Terry Duffy warned that perpetual contracts and prediction markets are triggering a speculative frenzy among retail investors, which could lead to an impending disaster. The first batch of perpetual contracts approved by the CFTC is listed by Kalshi, and several U.S. exchanges are also discussing launching their own perpetual contracts.
