Hyperliquid's lobbying organization, Hyperliquid Policy Center, issued a statement welcoming the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC)'s latest regulatory initiatives, including the approval of the first listed perpetual contract in the U.S., the release of a policy statement on the listing of perpetual derivatives, related interpretive guidance, and a no-action relief letter, as well as staff consultation documents regarding 24/7 trading, clearing, and settlement.The Hyperliquid Policy Center stated that these initiatives represent the first time in a long while that regulators have explicitly acknowledged the legitimacy and importance of perpetual contracts in price discovery and risk management. It pointed out that past regulatory uncertainty has led to related markets and liquidity flowing overseas, weakening the U.S.'s competitiveness in the global derivatives market.The Hyperliquid Policy Center also expressed its eagerness to work closely with the CFTC to promote the establishment of a regulatory framework that applies not only to centralized intermediaries but also to on-chain protocols. Currently, most perpetual contract trading activities actually occur in on-chain markets.

According to The Block, quantitative market maker Wintermute has announced its entry into the prediction market sector, providing two-way quote liquidity services for several mainstream event contract platforms, marking the official expansion of its trading infrastructure into the emerging market at the intersection of crypto and traditional assets.The company stated that it has been continuously providing buy and sell bilateral quotes on multiple "leading platforms," with the total monthly trading volume of these prediction markets exceeding $20 billion this year, indicating that this sector is growing rapidly but still in the early stages of liquidity. Wintermute's annual trading volume exceeds $3.5 trillion, and this expansion further strengthens its cross-asset market-making capabilities.Jake Ostrovskis, head of OTC trading at the company, stated that prediction markets have a demand structure similar to traditional major asset classes, but liquidity is still insufficient, requiring continuous bilateral quotes to enhance price discovery efficiency and trading depth. He pointed out that tighter spreads and greater trading capacity will improve the quality of market probability signals.In the industry, institutions such as Jump Trading and Galaxy Digital have also entered this field, with some platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi having a cumulative trading volume exceeding $150 billion. Analysts believe that Wintermute's entry further promotes the integration of prediction markets and crypto infrastructure, especially in terms of stablecoin settlement, on-chain clearing, and risk management systems, as these markets gradually approach a derivatives-level institutional development structure.

The attacker (0xe806...b760) exploited this vulnerability by calling transferOwnership() to set the attacker contract as the owner when the owner was address(0) through permission checks, then called desertJasper() to add hidden balances to the queue, and subsequently called glenFlash() to execute ashBud(), directly increasing the address balance by 1e30 basic units without increasing the totalSupply.

According to Forbes, the decentralized derivatives platform Hyperliquid has launched the pre-IPO perpetual contract for SpaceX (SPCX-USDC) on Trade.xyz, sparking a global regulatory gray area controversy. This contract allows leveraged trading without holding any shares of SpaceX and has not been authorized by the company, with an initial reference price of $150, corresponding to an implied valuation of approximately $1.78 trillion, which quickly surged to $216.It is reported that this contract is settled in USDC, with prices derived from market oracles, and is not linked to SpaceX's actual financials or equity structure. SpaceX itself has neither authorized nor participated in this market, yet its valuation is being priced and traded in real-time on-chain, leading to the controversy of "private company price discovery being taken over by decentralized derivatives." This market originates from Hyperliquid's HIP-3 mechanism, which supports the notion that the valuations of private companies may be being repriced by on-chain derivatives, while the regulatory framework has yet to be established.
