Hyperliquid Engages with CFTC on Perpetuals and 24/7 Trading Frameworks
Decentralized finance protocol Hyperliquid has formally responded to the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission’s request for comment on perpetual futures and round-the-clock trading. The Hyper Foundation outlined its onchain system’s capabilities in a May 22 submission, emphasizing its existing infrastructure for continuous trading with robust risk controls.
Hyperliquid’s platform employs pre-funded collateral and automatic liquidations to mitigate risk, while maintaining transparency through publicly visible onchain transactions. The protocol positions its model as more resilient than traditional markets, with all margin adjustments and liquidations recorded immutably.
