TechFlow news, according to Cointelegraph, the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (CIRO) released its latest "List of Securities Eligible for Reduced Margin Requirements" on February 5, explicitly excluding cryptocurrency funds from reduced margin policies. CIRO stated that, given the volatility, liquidity risks, and regulatory uncertainty associated with crypto assets, this policy will remain in effect until further notice.
Under the rules, securities eligible for reduced margin requirements must meet several criteria, including a price volatility of no more than 25%, a public market capitalization exceeding 100 million Canadian dollars, and an average daily trading volume of at least 25,000 shares. This move will increase the cost of leveraged trading for crypto funds.
