TREE NEWS update: Hyperliquid co-founder Jeff Yan said the platform’s entry into the US market depends on an independent operating entity built on top of the protocol completing regulatory compliance. The HIP-3 upgrade lets third parties deploy derivatives markets on assets such as stocks, gold and crude oil, and ecosystem project Trade.xyz has surpassed $500 billion in cumulative trading volume.
Hyperliquid Says US Entry Hinges on Compliance of Separate Operating Entity
Hyperliquid's US path now runs through a third-party entity rather than the protocol itself, a structural choice that separates the decentralized core from the regulated front end. The HIP-3 upgrade is the real story here: letting outside parties spin up derivatives markets on stocks, gold and crude blurs the line between crypto venues and traditional commodity access, and Trade.xyz's volume suggests demand exists. Whether that volume reflects durable trading or incentives, and whether regulators accept the entity-based workaround, are the open questions worth watching.
