Odaily Planet Daily reported that Lorenzo Valente, Head of Digital Asset Research at investment firm ARK Invest, stated that Hyperliquid is in discussions with the CFTC and SEC to facilitate the offering of perpetual futures on its public chain by U.S.-regulated companies. He suggested that Hyperliquid acquire Gemini to position it as a U.S.-regulated HIP-3/4 deployer. He noted that Gemini's current market value is approximately $450 million, representing a decline of over 85% from its $3.3 billion valuation at the time of its 2025 IPO. Hyperliquid could obtain Gemini's entire U.S. regulatory infrastructure—including the NYDFS Trust Charter, DCM, DCO, FCM, MTLs, and Broker-dealer—for approximately $450 million.He further proposed that Hyperliquid could use approximately 7.9 million HYPE tokens from its community reserve, valued at around $550 million at $70 per token, to complete the acquisition at a premium of roughly 20% over Gemini's current market value. Following the transaction, Gemini would handle KYC, custody, fiat on/off ramps, brokerage, clearing, and compliance for the U.S. market, while Hyperliquid L1 would provide the underlying market infrastructure, liquidity, and on-chain settlement. He cited Polymarket's acquisition of QCEX as a similar precedent for re-entering the U.S. market, and stated that the core of this potential deal is not acquiring an exchange, but rather securing the regulatory bridge for HIP-3/4 to enter the U.S. market.
Odaily News, according to official sources, decentralized AI infrastructure DeAgentAI has announced the official launch of its new website.The AI Agent hosting platform, launched alongside the new website, is dedicated to providing long-term underlying support for the construction, deployment, and persistent hosting of intelligent agents. As the first flagship application deployed on this platform, Sentry has been released simultaneously, enabling round-the-clock persistent strategy monitoring with full coverage of all 308 assets on Hyperliquid (including crypto assets, stocks, and commodities). Leveraging the underlying trusted infrastructure, it transforms market insights into objective, emotion-free automated strategy execution.DeAgentAI stated that Sentry is only the first step in the platform's deployment, with more AI Agents for vertical scenarios to be continuously built and hosted on this platform in the future.Meanwhile, with the full deployment of the AI Agent platform, Sentry, and enterprise solutions, DeAgentAI has officially initiated a programmatic regular buyback and burn mechanism for $AIA based on real protocol revenue, driving token deflation and value capture through actual business growth, while continuously reinforcing the long-term value of $AIA.
According to Decrypt, Coinbase announced the official launch of perpetual futures trading in the Base App via Hyperliquid integration. Eligible users can access up to 50x leverage across over 290 perpetual contract markets, including BTC, ETH, tokenized stocks, and commodities.

Odaily News: Hyperliquid ecosystem project team HyperLabs has unlocked 433,025 HYPE, worth approximately $23.46 million, and has been continuously depositing tokens into trading platforms, including Flowdesk and OKX. Tracking data shows that an additional 9.92 million HYPE is expected to be unlocked on September 6, worth approximately $589 million based on a price of $59.39. The Hyper Foundation publishes the claim amounts around the 6th of each month. In March, only 173,217 HYPE were actually claimed, lower than the planned 99,200 tokens. Tokenomist data shows that the aid fund has repurchased 11.9 million HYPE from the unlock schedule, accounting for approximately 14%. The repurchased tokens will be burned, reducing the current total supply to 955.3 million HYPE. Certified Public Accountant Dat Ngo stated that tax liabilities typically arise upon token vesting, and some holders may sell tokens to cover taxes. TMGM CPA Ashley Akin stated that if the market is not overly leveraged, the $581 million unlock can still be absorbed, but combined with margin requirements, it would increase trading difficulty. On-chain perpetual contract trading platform Hyperliquid does not restrict users from trading during certain news events. Market data shows that liquidation volume has dropped 71%, trading volume has fallen 50%, and open interest continues to decline. Bitcoin remains below $65,000, and the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting minutes will be released ahead of the Federal Reserve's September 15-16 meeting. (Forbes Digital Assets)
Odaily Odaily News: Hyperliquid founder Jeff Yan stated that the latest paper by Davide Barone and Fabrizio Lillo studies the execution performance of on-chain visible TWAP orders on Hyperliquid. The data shows that when on-chain TWAP orders are made public, market liquidity actually tends to tighten, thereby improving the average execution performance of TWAP orders.Jeff Yan stated that he has always believed that for non-toxic order flow, transparent trading can improve execution efficiency, and this research provides data support for this view. He believes that compared to traditional private trading venues, transparency and fair access can lead to more efficient trade execution.
Odaily News - Hyperliquid Policy Center announced that it has recently submitted a joint comment letter with Douro Labs to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), supporting the SEC's proposal to rescind Rule 611 of Regulation NMS (the "Trade-Through Rule") and calling on regulators to establish a clearer Best Execution regulatory framework for on-chain markets.The Hyperliquid Policy Center believes that the current Trade-Through Rule is built on traditional securities market structures and is clearly incompatible with blockchain-native trading models. HPC and Douro Labs put forward three recommendations in their joint comment letter:First, they support the SEC in rescinding the Trade-Through Rule. The two companies argue that this rule relies on a traditional quote system that cannot accurately reflect the on-chain trading environment, and its continued application could hinder the development of on-chain financial markets.Second, the SEC should establish clear best execution guidance for on-chain trading. On-chain markets feature new factors that do not exist in traditional markets, such as quote-less trading, 24/7 operation, blockchain network fees, and MEV (Maximal Extractable Value). Brokers need clearer regulatory standards to ensure they can execute trades on behalf of clients.Third, the regulatory framework should be principles-based and recognize independent price reference mechanisms. HPC and Douro Labs suggest that when the traditional NBBO cannot cover on-chain markets, the SEC should recognize independent price reference data formed through transparent, manipulation-resistant mechanisms. For example, the Pyth Network, which Douro Labs helped build, provides price oracle services for on-chain markets by aggregating real-time data supplied by exchanges and market participants.
Hyperliquid announced that it has implemented multiple new features for the HIP-4 outcome markets and disclosed the phased mainnet launch schedule. Hyperliquid stated that after the next network upgrade, outcome markets deployed by validators will start charging fees, with the average outcome trading fee being approximately half of the standard spot trading fee. During the initial phase of the HIP-4 mainnet launch, phased restrictions will be applied, allowing each deployer to have up to 100 outcomes simultaneously and deploy up to 500 outcomes per day; once the technology stabilizes, limits are expected to increase relatively quickly to 1,000 outcomes simultaneously and 5,000 deployments per day, and may be further relaxed subsequently.

Last week, major assets closed higher across the board: July Non-Farm Payrolls -23k severely dampened rate hike expectations, the USD broke below 100, and Gold and Crypto benefited in tandem. BTC/ETH ETF weekly net inflows were $853M/$245M, the third-largest institutional buying week of the year. Core risk this week: 8/12 CPI (08:30 ET), determining the direction of September rate hike expectations. Strategy advances on three fronts: Sell ETH weekly expiry $1,800 P (annualized ~15-20%), Sell HYPE 1D $52 P (annualized ~70%, newly listed on Bybit), Sell XAUT 1D $4,360 C (annualized ~30-60%). All three positions must be reduced to safe levels before CPI.

Odaily News – Grayscale withdrew three ETF registration applications for Cardano (ADA), Hedera (HBAR), and Polkadot (DOT) in succession on August 7, with the three withdrawal filings submitted approximately 190 seconds apart.All three withdrawal filings indicate that Grayscale no longer plans to proceed with the issuance of shares for the related ETFs. The filings also note that the registration statements had not yet taken effect, no securities were issued or sold, and no preliminary prospectus was published. These withdrawals do not represent rejections by the SEC of the related ETF applications, and the filings do not disclose the reasons behind them.As of August 8, Grayscale's altcoin ETF applications for Bittensor, Aave, BNB, NEAR, and Zcash remain in the preliminary stage. Previously, Grayscale's Avalanche Staking ETF and Hyperliquid Staking ETF registration statements took effect in March and June of this year, respectively. However, the effectiveness of a registration statement does not mean the product has begun trading. (cryptoslate)
Odaily News – Hyperliquid's RWA perpetual contract trading is growing rapidly, yet platform revenue continues to decline, creating a divergence of "record-high trading volume versus shrinking retained revenue." Data shows that Hyperliquid's open interest climbed to approximately $11 billion on July 13, hitting a new high for 2026, with perpetual contract trading volume over the past 30 days nearing $178 billion, and its share of global perpetual open interest rising to around 9%. Meanwhile, Hyperliquid's protocol revenue has declined for four consecutive quarters, dropping from roughly $357 million in Q3 2025 to about $202 million in Q2 2026, down approximately 43% from its peak.Analysts attribute this primarily to the HIP-3 mechanism, which allows external developers staking 500,000 HYPE to create their own perpetual markets and earn up to 50% of trading fees. In early 2026, developer-deployed markets accounted for only about 2% of Hyperliquid's perpetual trading volume; that figure has now risen to roughly half, meaning an increasing share of trading revenue is being distributed to external developers.Since approximately 97% of Hyperliquid's trading fees are used to buy back HYPE, the decline in platform revenue directly translates to shrinking buyback scale. As of Friday, HYPE was trading at around $55, down about 28% from its all-time high of roughly $77 on June 16. Meanwhile, core contributors unlocked nearly 10 million HYPE on August 6, valued at approximately $550 million at then-prevailing prices, with subsequent unlock schedules continuing through 2027.Overall, Hyperliquid's trading activity is still growing rapidly, but the revenue diversion caused by HIP-3 is weakening the platform's own earnings growth and HYPE buyback support. The boom in its RWA business has yet to fully translate into earnings growth for HYPE holders. (CoinDesk)
Odaily News - Hyperliquid Policy Center (HPC) announced that it has submitted a policy statement regarding the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Agricultural Advisory Committee meeting, supporting U.S. users' participation in the on-chain derivatives market and calling on regulators to adopt a gradual path to promote the development of innovative products such as Perpetual Futures.HPC stated that the U.S. derivatives market originated in agriculture. In the 19th century, grain exchanges in the U.S. Midwest used futures contracts to help farmers and traders discover prices and manage future delivery risks. Since 1922, the U.S. futures market had been regulated under the Department of Agriculture for a long period, until Congress established the CFTC in 1974, placing oversight of the agency under the jurisdiction of the Senate and House Agriculture Committees. Modern derivatives regulation should still revolve around the actual users of the market. Agricultural producers and processors have always been important constituents served by the CFTC, and market participants' needs for product choice, risk management tools, and market innovation should also serve as important references for the evolution of regulatory policy.HPC noted that perpetual futures are now becoming an important innovative derivative in the digital asset era. The committee's discussions on product choice, risk management gaps, and market modernization are highly relevant to current regulatory efforts to explore a regulatory framework for on-chain derivatives. In the submitted statement, HPC put forward three key points:1. Market choice is crucial for risk management. Users in agricultural and other derivatives markets need more tool options. Past experience with restricting innovative products suggests that closing off market choices without adequate evaluation can impose costs.2. A phased approach by the CFTC to regulating perpetual futures is a reasonable direction. HPC stated that the development of new derivatives should be driven by end-user demand rather than relying solely on regulatory presuppositions.3. Public blockchains can enhance the efficiency of financial infrastructure. HPC believes that blockchain technology can modernize clearing and settlement systems, improve collateral liquidity, while continuing to comply with the Commodity Exchange Act's requirements regarding market integrity and risk protection.
