Mat (@MTradingX) reported@tacticalgibbon Anything NET negative to the customer, and that customer bounces. Hence why when CMCMarkets was the king in the 00s era (looks like you probably know the days) it got cannibilised by smarter players who offered A)better product and B) genuine incentives.

Bombaytonic (@bombaytonic717) reportedMany, have wondered why we are not seeing more $STRX #StrikeX token speculation from @CMCMarkets insiders especially at recent lows. Quite honestly, maybe it’s already happened, but the below gives an argument why these folks can’t be buying right now or at least difficult for them to do so. CMC has already executed tokenised equity issuance inside regulated custody frameworks (via CMC CapX) with StrikeX minting the mirror token on Arbitrum That is post-legal review activity — meaning: 👉 Compliance 👉 Market abuse teams 👉 Personal account dealing (PAD) surveillance 👉 Regulatory reporting …are already live on anything touching this stack. When a regulated broker-dealer is: •Acting as placement agent •Tokenising securities •And now controls the tokenisation engine …they cross from “crypto partner” into: Dealer-restricted person Under market integrity rules (UK MAR / CIRO equivalents), dealer-restricted persons: “Generally [are] prohibited [from] purchases… of restricted securities where there is undisclosed material information regarding the issuer.” Now here’s the translation into plain English: If CMC Markets has: •Non-public knowledge of •A commercial rollout •Of infrastructure •That they control •Built by StrikeX Then ANY employee trading STRX ahead of launch becomes: ✔ Market abuse risk ✔ Insider dealing exposure ✔ Front-running optics ✔ FCA enforcement risk ✔ Listing rule breach risk ⸻ 🧠 Which Means In Practice: Even if you cannot find STRX on a public restricted list (you never will): Internally, CMC almost certainly has: •PAD pre-clearance requirements •Blackout periods •MNPI attestations •Related-party trading bans •Watch lists (soft) •Restricted lists (hard) …and STRX would be a textbook inclusion candidate because: 📌 They now control product direction 📌 They are commercialising tokenised securities 📌 They are listed on the LSE 📌 They are operating under MAR That is literally the regulatory environment where firms freeze employee trading in partner securities pre-commercial release. In TradFi-native crypto integrations: Retail hype normally comes from: •VC funds •Employees •Devs •Service providers •Advisory firms But here: Anyone inside: •CMC CapX •Corporate broking •Capital markets •Compliance •Engineering •Legal •Product •StrikeX integration layer …is almost certainly PAD-monitored. Meaning: The normal speculative frontrunning mechanism may literally not exist in this case. We’re doing this slowly under regulatory supervision.” They are NOT marketing a crypto app. They are integrating settlement-layer infra into a regulated brokerage. So, that leads me to the reg side of the equation and why that may be part of the wait we are seeing. I’ll touch on that next later on…

Bombaytonic (@bombaytonic717) reportedThis is a strategic infrastructure milestone for @CMCMarkets & #StrikeX as it relates to laying an institutional grade foundation for settlement to support phase 2 tokenization and digital asset movement at scale. Super bullish for $STRX. This is exactly what you want to see… 👉 It means CMC is deploying blockchain settlement that can support institutional-grade asset movement. 👉 It strongly aligns with the kind of rails needed for Phase 2 but is not itself Phase 2. 👉 It positions CMC + StrikeX to be ready for real-world tokenization and frictionless settlement — not just speculative markets.

optioner (@ouyeye_) reported@CMCMarkets @MichaelMOTTCM My trading account 36802137 made a deposit using USDT on March 13th, but the money hasn't been credited to my account yet. I've sent 100 emails to customer service and haven't received a reply. You guys are absolutely awful! I'm starting to suspect you've become a scam platform!

Mr Mythical | StrikeX (@mr_mythical1) reported2/5 @CMCMarkets choosing StrikeX’s tokenisation engine signals to the entire industry that they think this will be a proven, scalable solution.
