Sitting in the White House with the heads of Coinbase, Ripple, Robinhood, Nasdaq, and ICE, President Trump said his CFTC chair is working to bring Hyperliquid into the United States. “I understand that Mike is also working to bring Hyperliquid into the United States in a fully compliant and legal fashion,” Trump said, referring to CFTC Chair Michael Selig. “Working very hard on that. We would really like to see it.” And the market exploded.
HYPE jumped 23% to $72 at peak. Another perps leader in LIT popped 20% as well to a new local high. The broader crypto market legged up as well (albeit perhaps for other reasons as well, like Bessent’s yield curve control actions).
