Hyperliquid founder pushes for US regulatory exemption for blockchain
- —Hyperliquid lacks a CFTC exchange license and blocks US users
- —Yan wants the blockchain classified as infrastructure, not an exchange
- —Prediction market odds of HYPE hitting $100 by end-2026 fell from 72% to 47% in a week
Why it matters: The CFTC's classification decision will determine whether Hyperliquid can serve US users without an exchange license.
