Kraken Parent Plans Permissioned Hyperliquid Perps for US Traders

The notable part is the structure, not the venue: a permissioned wrapper around Hyperliquid perpetuals, with Bitnomial handling deployment, administration, clearing and settlement, and NinjaTrader Clearing carrying approved accounts. That layered model is how a US-facing venue can approach products native to offshore, permissionless markets, and it puts regulated intermediaries rather than the protocol in the compliance seat. The open question is whether this template becomes the standard route for US access to onchain derivatives, or stays a one-off arrangement.
