The Hyperliquid Policy Center (HPC) praised Securities and Exchange Commission 
(SEC) Chair Paul Atkins on Friday for what it described as an ambitious effort 
to improve clarity for on-chain markets. SEC’s On-Chain Guidance Agenda 
Atkins’ remarks centered on four key areas where he said the Commission should 
provide more guidance on how regulatory principles translate into the context 
of on-chain activity. He said that participants should have a clear sense of 
how on-chain trading systems can function within the regulatory perimeter. 
Looking ahead, he noted that while the SEC may consider a limited “innovation 
pathway” soon, he also argued the agency should think about what a future- 
proof framework could look like. In his view, that framework would take the 
form of notice-and-comment rulemaking, and it would specifically address how 
the SEC’s “exchange” definition applies to on-chain trading systems. Related

Here’s Why The SEC chair also pointed to the need to clarify how the broker 
and dealer framework would apply to these activities. He said the Commission 
should examine issues raised in a recent staff statement on software 
interfaces, and he suggested that this policy initiative could involve notice- 
and-comment exemptive rulemaking. A third area of emphasis was the definition 
of a “clearing agency” as it applies to on-chain clearing and settlement. 
Atkins said rulemaking may be necessary to confirm which general-purpose 
activities fall outside that definition. Finally, Atkins called for additional 
clarity surrounding what are commonly referred to as “crypto vaults.” He 
described crypto vaults as on-chain software applications that allow users to 
earn yield passively by deploying their assets into yield-generating 
opportunities on-chain. He said the Commission should address the relevant 
Securities Act and Advisers Act touch-points as it considers these policy 
initiatives. Why Hyperliquid Policy Center Finds It Promising Atkins concluded 
by saying the SEC will keep moving forward to accommodate markets moving on- 
chain. At the same time, he reiterated his call for Congress to send the 
CLARITY Act to President Trump’s desk. He argued that while the SEC intends to 
“future-proof” its efforts through notice-and-comment rulemaking, there is “no 
more powerful” future-proofing mechanism than enshrining well-designed 
statutory language in law. The Hyperliquid Policy Center, led by Jake 
Chervinsky, said it was encouraged by Atkins’ approach of mapping on-chain 
clearing and settlement systems to existing legal frameworks “on their own 
terms,” rather than forcing them into legacy categories built for legacy 
architecture. Related Reading: JPMorgan Says Strategy Could Buy Up To $30B In

also called on-chain clearing and settlement “one of the most significant 
financial infrastructure innovations of our generation,” and it said it views 
the chairman’s stance as a constructive step toward regulatory alignment as 
on-chain systems continue to evolve. At the time of writing, the Hyperliquid 
platform&#8217;s native token, HYPE, was trading at $42.98, marking a 2% increase 
over the last 24 hours. Currently, the Hyperliquid token is trading at almost 
27% below its all-time high of $59, which was reached last year. Featured
