HYPE Price Jumps 20% on Trump Hyperliquid US Signal
- On Wednesday, President Donald Trump announced that Commodity Futures Trading Commission Chair Mike Selig is working to bring Hyperliquid into the United States in a fully compliant manner.
- Hyperliquid is a decentralized exchange best known for "perpetual futures," leveraged contracts that historically flourished outside the U.S. due to regulatory restrictions limiting offshore platforms.
- Shares of Hyperliquid Strategies jumped 31% on Wednesday, while options volume surged to nearly eight times the 30-day average amid heavy call trading activity.
- David Schamis, CEO of Hyperliquid Strategies, said "when Trump says it at a press conference, it means it's a priority," indicating the CFTC's responsiveness signals momentum.
- Bringing the platform onshore remains complex; U.S. derivatives exchanges face strict registration and oversight rules, and the CFTC has not yet officially approved the exchange's operations.
