Crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett speculated that ICE’s revised Trade.xyz announcement may reflect extra legal caution after the company deleted and reposted the original, BlockBeats reported.
Why the repost drew attention
Terrett said the deletion caused some users on X to worry that the partnership had been canceled. The reissued announcement placed more emphasis on the plan to launch the markets and on the need for regulatory approval.
Reason remains unconfirmed
Terrett’s legal-team explanation is speculation. ICE did not state why it removed and reposted the announcement, and the proposed U.S. perpetual-contract venue remains subject to regulatory approvals.
