On-chain data analysis shows that on the Hyperliquid HIP-3 platform, the SK Hynix (SKHX) perpetual contract currently accounts for approximately 33% of all HIP-3 trading volume, while also accounting for about 50% of the total trading volume of stock perpetual contracts, making it the single contract with the highest trading volume in this category. SKHX is a tokenized stock perpetual contract deployed by a builder via the HIP-3 mechanism, corresponding to the stock price of SK Hynix, South Korea. SK Hynix has long been listed on the Korean main board and is scheduled to complete its U.S. ADR (Nasdaq: SKHY) listing around July 10, 2026. HIP-3 allows eligible builders to stake HYPE and then permissionlessly deploy perpetual markets, enabling traders to trade related assets with leverage on the platform 24/7. This is also the context behind the original post author @0xNairolf's joke that "people really want to trade it before they are truly allowed to trade it"—namely, achieving relatively barrier-free trading through decentralized rails. The data is sourced from Hyperliquid official HIP-3 dashboard screenshots and verified by on-chain tracking sites; recently, SKHX's single-day trading volume has reached the hundreds of millions of U.S. dollars level multiple times.

: Following a meeting with Islamic scholar Mufti Taqi Usmani, Bilal bin Saqib, Chairman of the Pakistan Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority, stated that stablecoins, tokenized RWAs, and other blockchain products should undergo separate technical and Sharia assessments and should not be treated as a single category.

In March of this year, Pakistan passed the Virtual Assets Act, which requires exchanges, custodians, and token issuers to ensure their operations comply with Sharia law under the guidance of an Islamic finance scholars committee. Meanwhile, the country is advancing plans for a sovereign stablecoin, the tokenization of national assets, and the licensing of crypto trading platforms.
