first_img Tokenized fund platform OpenETF launches Hyperliquid testnet

The tokenized fund platform OpenETF launched its testnet system on October 6, 2026, creating a fund from the Hyperliquid portfolio, with shares existing in the form of tokens held in wallets. Currently, the deployment uses worthless test assets, and the documentation states that real funds should not enter the system. Each fund has a name, symbol, public terms, and shares in the form of ERC-20 compatible tokens.The manager trades the portfolio on Hyperliquid, and investors hold shares in their own wallets. The initial offering is subscribed in USDC at net asset value, with a minimum amount of 100 USDC, and the manager may set a higher threshold. The fund is a treasury across HyperCore and HyperEVM, with the treasury contract on HyperEVM issuing shares and pricing for subscriptions and redemptions, while the same treasury holds and trades the portfolio as a trading account on HyperCore. Investors hold share tokens, the manager directs trades, but does not obtain the treasury trading keys.Creating a fund requires no approval or creation fee. The manager must purchase at least 100 USDC worth of shares and choose a commitment ratio of at least 5%. Performance fees can be selected from 0% to 50% of consolidated profits, with a default of 20%; the management fee is 0% to 2% per year, with a default of 0%, and the two rates are frozen after shares are issued. The testnet charges an exit adjustment fee for the priced redemption portion, starting from 0.1%, with an additional 0.05% for each unit of nominal leverage, capped at 1%, with fees remaining in the fund. The documentation describes this deployment as a testnet only, with no timeline provided for mainnet launch.

first_img Hyperliquid confirmed that its headquarters is located in Singapore, and the MAS stated that it is not within the regulatory jurisdiction

Hyperliquid Labs confirmed to the Financial Times that its registered headquarters is located in Singapore, but the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) stated that due to Hyperliquid's decentralized nature, it does not consider the platform to fall under its regulatory jurisdiction. MAS indicated that it is not aware of Hyperliquid being regulated in any major jurisdiction.Hyperliquid stated that it is currently in an unregulated status, has never claimed to have obtained permission or authorization from MAS, and is willing to engage in constructive cooperation with regulatory authorities. According to FT, a team of about 11 people led by co-founder Jeff Yan has relocated to Singapore in 2024, and company documents along with recent recruitment information also indicate that it has an office in Singapore.Previously, on June 26, MAS had listed Hyperliquid on its investor warning list, which is used to alert the public about entities that may be mistakenly believed to be licensed or regulated by MAS. Hyperliquid responded at that time that being listed does not constitute a ban, enforcement action, or determination of misconduct, and described itself as an unlicensed infrastructure. Singapore will require local companies providing digital token services only to overseas clients to obtain a license starting from June 30, 2025, and MAS stated that such licenses will only be issued in very limited circumstances.

first_img Hyperliquid CEO: The Wall Street wealth creation model is unsustainable for most participants

The co-founder and CEO of the decentralized perpetual contract trading platform Hyperliquid, Jeff Yan, stated during a fireside chat at the Token2049 conference in Singapore that traditional wealth creation opportunities on Wall Street, such as company stocks, are essentially inaccessible to the investing public before they are listed on exchanges, causing retail investors to miss out on the most significant price increases prior to listing. He noted that certain assets are tradable by only a few people during most of their growth phases, and by the time the public can trade them, the growth has already been captured by a privileged few, making this wealth creation model unsustainable.Yan stated that Hyperliquid's main mission is to expand the accessibility of wealth creation opportunities and encourage more people to participate in the financial system, with income being merely a byproduct. He mentioned that Hyperliquid's success partly stems from its perpetual contracts having no expiration date, which reduces the number of decisions traders need to make and prevents liquidity fragmentation. According to data from DefiLlama, Hyperliquid generated $72 million in revenue over the past 30 days, ranking third among protocols in terms of revenue.Blockchain asset management company Pantera stated in July that perpetual contracts, due to their structural advantages, could become one of the dominant trading tools in the global financial sector, and Hyperliquid has demonstrated the potential of blockchain infrastructure to challenge traditional markets. Jeffrey Sprecher, CEO of the Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange, called on regulators to create a fair competitive environment for the launch of 24/7 on-chain perpetual contracts. In March of this year, the New York Stock Exchange partnered with the tokenization platform Securitize to advance blockchain-based stock trading infrastructure.
