Maybe, maybe not.
I could kind of see them having conversations with a regulatory authority for a few months, trying to see if there's a way to keep having the product.
Then, when it's clearly "Nope, not going to happen", they shut it down. That could take ~6 months with extended negotiations.
Whatever their reasons, it's clear that it wasn't the CFTC's guidance that made them suddenly pull the plug.
