- The Hyperliquid Policy Center and TradeXYZ said they asked the CFTC to create a regulatory framework that would allow trading in energy-asset perpetual futures in the US.
- The two groups said 24-hour on-chain markets can serve as a risk-management tool during disruptions in energy markets, and that traditional dated futures and perpetual futures should be allowed to trade alongside each other.
- With the CFTC already reviewing the potential launch of Bitcoin perpetual futures and crude oil perpetual futures, HPC said it will continue discussions aimed at expanding access to on-chain perpetual futures markets under US regulatory oversight.

The Hyperliquid Policy Center, or HPC, and perpetual futures trading platform TradeXYZ have asked the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission to establish a regulatory framework that would allow perpetual futures tied to energy assets such as crude oil to trade in the US.
The Block reported on August 26 that HPC and TradeXYZ made the case in a comment letter to the CFTC. Perpetual futures are derivatives with no expiration date, allowing traders to bet on price moves without directly holding the underlying asset.
The two groups pointed to energy-market turmoil earlier this year after US and Israeli strikes on Iran. They said supply-chain disruptions in the Middle East hit over a weekend, when traditional crude futures markets were closed, while 24-hour on-chain venues such as Hyperliquid continued operating.
