Hyperliquid and non-custodial wallet Phantom have jointly submitted a comment letter to the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), calling for updates to regulatory rules for on-chain trading infrastructure. The two parties argue that current CFTC rules were designed for the traditional financial system, which relies on centralized intermediaries, and are not applicable to DeFi. They suggest clarifying that developing software for on-chain trading protocols does not require registration as an exchange or clearing agency, and that non-custodial wallet front-ends should not need to register as introducing brokers. They also propose allowing regulated institutions to use blockchain for trading and clearing operations. Previously, the CFTC and the U.S. SEC jointly released a request for comment in June, seeking industry input on regulatory rules affecting financial innovation. (The Block)

Hyperliquid has become a decentralized exchange used by many traders for perpetual contract trading. Its Ethereum-compatible module, HyperEVM, directly connects to the self-developed HyperCore blockchain, allowing applications such as wallets and exchanges to provide services like perpetual contract trading based on its shared liquidity. Currently, hundreds of developers are deploying or integrating through Hyperliquid's builder codes system, including MetaMask, Phantom wallet, and South African exchange VALR. Data from Flowscan shows that related developers have generated approximately $90 million in revenue so far. Since October 2025, MetaMask has offered users self-custodial perpetual contract access within the wallet and charges a 0.1% builder fee. VALR CEO Farzam Ehsani stated that the exchange previously built its own perpetual contract infrastructure but chose to integrate Hyperliquid's order book due to insufficient liquidity and trading volume.
