From:  http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-01-16/senator-seeks-clarity-on-commodity-agency-s-bitcoin-plans.html

"While the commission does not have policies and procedures that are specific to virtual currencies, the agency’s regulatory authority extends to futures and swaps contracts in any commodity.”

I read this article as if the CFTC is saying, no, were not going to do anything just yet.  Good news for BTC, right?

If the market is free, they have no power. They like power.
