Hyperliquid lobbying organization responds to regulatory pressure from CME and ICE: On-chain transparency is more helpful in combating market manipulation

In response to Bloomberg's report on CME and ICE pressuring the CFTC regarding Hyperliquid, the Hyperliquid Policy Center, a lobbying organization led by prominent crypto lawyer Jake Chervinsky and funded by the Hyper Foundation, tweeted that the concerns lack basis.The organization stated that Hyperliquid publishes complete on-chain transaction records in real-time, with transparency far exceeding that of traditional exchanges, which serves as a strong deterrent against insider trading and price manipulation, and is beneficial for regulatory agencies and law enforcement to conduct monitoring and investigations.Additionally, Hyperliquid offers 24/7 uninterrupted trading, effectively eliminating price gaps between the opening and closing of traditional markets. The organization acknowledged that current U.S. laws have not yet made specific provisions for on-chain derivatives markets and will continue to work with Washington policymakers to promote the implementation of relevant regulatory frameworks.Previously, the Hyperliquid Policy Center was established on February 18 of this year in Washington, with former Blockchain Association and Variant Chief Legal Officer Jake Chervinsky serving as CEO, receiving a donation of 1 million HYPE from the Hyper Foundation, focusing on promoting a compliant regulatory path for DeFi in the United States.

Analysis: Bitcoin is oscillating between favorable regulations and rising yields, with continuous outflows from ETFs putting pressure on prices

According to Decrypt, the price of Bitcoin remains around $80,350, with a short-term increase of only 0.8%, continuing to face pressure after multiple attempts to break through the $82,000 resistance level failed. This range is seen as a combined resistance level of the ETF cost line, the 200-day moving average, and the CME gap filling area. Although the U.S. CLARITY Act has passed the Senate Banking Committee, bringing positive expectations for crypto regulation, institutional funds continue to withdraw.Data shows that the net outflow of the U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF has decreased to an average of -$88 million per day over the past seven days, marking the largest outflow since mid-February. Analysts believe that this round of selling pressure is more about "profit-taking" rather than panic selling. On a macro level, rising U.S. Treasury yields have become a core source of pressure. The yield on the U.S. 10-year Treasury bond has risen to about 4.52%, reaching a 10-month high, while the April CPI has increased by 3.8% year-on-year, the highest level in three years, further delaying market expectations for a Federal Reserve interest rate cut.Analysts point out that geopolitical conflicts are driving up energy prices, exacerbating inflationary pressures, thereby weakening the appeal of risk assets. From an institutional perspective, some analysts believe that the current outflow of ETF funds is part of portfolio rebalancing rather than a trend-based withdrawal.The options market shows that Bitcoin faces significant resistance in the $82,000-$84,000 range, while $77,000 is a key support level. If the price falls below this range and leverage does not cool down, the market may enter a deleveraging phase, increasing the risk of a correction.

The CLARITY Act advances in the Senate, potentially reshaping the landscape of cryptocurrency regulation in the United States

According to a16z crypto, on May 14, the U.S. Senate Banking Committee voted in a bipartisan manner to advance the "Digital Asset Market CLARITY Act" (CLARITY), marking a historic step in the legislative framework for the U.S. crypto market. The CLARITY Act aims to establish a clear regulatory framework for blockchain networks and digital assets, with core content including: clarifying the regulatory boundaries between the SEC and CFTC regarding crypto assets, regulating the operations of crypto exchanges, protecting consumer rights, and providing a clear path for compliant operation of blockchain networks in the U.S.a16z pointed out that the U.S. has relied on "regulatory enforcement instead of legislation" over the past decade, which not only distorts the market and stifles innovation but also gives rise to a large number of regulatory arbitrage activities, leading many crypto projects to move overseas. The bill references the 2024 FIT21 Act and the 2025 House version of the CLARITY Act, and further improves upon them. Currently, the two drafts from the Senate Banking Committee and the Agriculture Committee will be merged into a unified bill, which will be submitted for a full Senate vote, and after passing, will also require approval from the House of Representatives and the President's signature to officially take effect.a16z compares this legislative progress to the historical significance of the 1933 Securities Act and cites the precedent of explosive growth in the industry following the passage of the GENIUS stablecoin bill, believing that once CLARITY is implemented, it will usher in a new wave of innovation for the U.S. crypto industry.
