HYPE Surges 11% After Trump Hints At U.S. Launch

Hyperliquid token prices jumped 11 percent this week following comments from President Donald Trump. During a White House meeting on Wednesday, the President stated that CFTC Chair Mike Selig is actively working to bring the platform into the United States under official federal rules.

This move could open the door for mainstream American traders to access the popular decentralized perpetual futures protocol legally. Until now, regulatory hurdles kept many domestic users on the sidelines, so any path to compliance marks a major shift for the project.

Traders are now watching to see how the CFTC shapes the framework for decentralized derivatives. If the transition goes smoothly, it might set a strong precedent for other trading platforms hoping to operate inside the American market.
