Hyperliquid Policy Center Proposes Equity Perpetuals as Security Futures to SEC and CFTC
AI take
The significance lies in a crypto-native venue proactively seeking legacy classification rather than contesting it, which could set a template for how perpetual-style products are absorbed into existing U.S. oversight. It matters most to platforms weighing similar listings and to regulators now asked to reconcile perpetual mechanics with security-futures rules. The open question is whether the SEC and CFTC treat this as a workable path or a jurisdictional dispute.
