The meeting comes amid a leadership vacuum at the CFTC, with only Acting Chair Caroline Pham currently in place.
The roundtable will be moderated by former CFTC Chair J. Christopher Giancarlo and former Commissioner Jill Sommers.
The event coincides with broader U.S. legislative efforts to establish a crypto market framework.
While the House of Representatives passed the CLARITY Act in July to define SEC and CFTC responsibilities, the Senate has yet to act on its version.
Both agencies have shifted their approaches to digital assets in recent months.
Under President Donald Trump’s administration, the SEC closed investigations into Coinbase, Ripple, and Kraken, while approving streamlined listing standards for crypto ETFs.
Meanwhile, the CFTC has engaged industry voices, exploring stablecoins and other tokenized assets as collateral in derivatives markets.
