The price of HYPE climbed above the 70 dollar mark today. This upward move followed a statement from President Donald Trump confirming that federal regulators are actively working to bring the decentralized perpetuals exchange Hyperliquid into the United States.

This development suggests a shift toward a more crypto friendly regulatory climate. While legislative efforts like the CLARITY Act currently remain stalled in Congress, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission appears to be taking independent steps to integrate popular decentralized platforms into the local market.

Investors are watching this story closely to see if the integration process proceeds without roadblocks. If the CFTC successfully grants Hyperliquid a path into the U.S. market, it could signal a major win for other decentralized finance protocols hoping to serve American traders.
