According to DeFiLlama's latest "Tokenized Stock Research Report", tokenized stocks are becoming one of the fastest-growing sectors, with active market cap increasing from $814 million at the beginning of the year to $1.976 billion, a growth of over 140%. The report conducted a comparative analysis of the stock product architecture, market trading data, and liquidity performance of mainstream platforms including Binance, Bitget, Kraken, Bybit, Hyperliquid, and Ondo Finance. Data shows that in liquidity benchmark tests for the five stock spot markets of MSTR, SPY, QQQ, CRCL, and NVDA, Bitget's stock token rToken had a median bid-ask spread of only 0.83 basis points and maintained the deepest order book liquidity across all sample markets. In execution benchmark tests covering 36 stock perpetual contracts and 8 metal and commodity perpetual contracts, Bitget maintained a leading position in depth across approximately 90% of trading pairs. DeFiLlama noted that as the tokenized stock market continues to mature, liquidity and trade execution quality are becoming key differentiating factors in platform competition. With lower trading costs and deeper order books, Bitget provides a more efficient trading experience for institutional and retail users.

According to BeInCrypto, Grayscale Head of Research Zach Pandl released a report using the "earnings per token" method to value Hyperliquid (HYPE). The report assumes Hyperliquid's 2027 earnings will be approximately $1 billion (an increase of about 20% compared to 2025), and expects the circulating supply at that time to reach 270 million to 310 million tokens, corresponding to earnings per token of approximately $3.25 to $3.75. Calculated at the current price of approximately $54, the forward P/E ratio is approximately 15 to 18 times, suggesting it still holds a valuation advantage compared to fintech stocks.

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.

Hyperliquid co-founder iliensinc responded to the abnormal SK Hynix pricing incident on Trade.xyz this morning, stating that Hyperliquid is a permissionless blockchain, and different teams can deploy and operate markets based on its infrastructure. Among them, the xyz:SKHYNIX perpetual contract was deployed and is operated by the XYZ team. The XYZ team is currently investigating the situation and will release updates once a conclusion is reached.Iliensinc also explained that the HIP-3 market deployer is responsible for providing data such as the mark price, oracle, and external perpetual contract price. Taking the pricing mechanism of a BTC perpetual contract as an example, the protocol provides the median of the latest on-chain transaction price, the best bid price, and the best ask price as one of three price components. The other two prices are provided by the deployer, and together these three influence the final mark price.
CME Group, the operator of the largest U.S. derivatives exchange, sued the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and its Chairman Mike Selig last month, opposing the regulator's approval for prediction market platform Kalshi and cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase to launch crypto perpetual contracts. Non-US perpetual contracts achieved a trading volume of $60 trillion last year. CME argues that the CFTC misclassified the relevant products and improperly applied the law, claiming that futures should have an expiration date, whereas perpetual contracts allow traders to establish leveraged positions on the future price of an asset without an expiration limit. CME also contends that the products harm its longer-dated futures business and that the CFTC failed to adequately consider the impact. The dispute between the parties intensified during the early stages of the Iran conflict, when demand rose for 24-hour crude oil perpetual contracts on offshore DeFi exchanges like Hyperliquid, as well as for on-chain prediction market trading related to the crude oil market. CME subsequently applied to accelerate the launch of 24-hour West Texas Intermediate crude oil futures trading but was blocked by the CFTC. Kalshi, after launching its first related product last month, stated that its trading volume exceeded $1 billion in less than a week. The CFTC is currently advancing the U.S. perpetual contracts market through policy statements and case-by-case reviews, rather than through new rulemaking procedures.
last night that Hyperliquid and Multicoin jointly announced their support for the CFTC’s prediction market framework.Regarding this collaboration, Kyle Samani, a critic of Hyperliquid and former co-founder of Multicoin who has since left the firm, stated on X: “If you are building in the Solana ecosystem, you should understand that Multicoin will obstruct everything you do.”
