CZ: Hyperliquid's compliant entry into the U.S. will open up space for more decentralized products

Odaily News - At the 2026 Wyoming Blockchain Symposium, CZ stated that Trump had previously mentioned Hyperliquid, and that CFTC Chairman Mike Selig would look for a path to bring the platform into the U.S. market. CZ believes that if Hyperliquid can operate in the U.S. in a compliant manner, it will open the door for perpetual contracts and more decentralized services to enter the U.S., serving as a major positive for the entire crypto industry. CZ noted that because of his stake in Binance, outsiders tend to view him as a supporter of centralized exchanges, but his fundamental reason for entering the crypto industry is his belief in decentralization. Some users choose Hyperliquid because the platform allows them to use it via wallet without requiring a traditional account or KYC process. CZ said that Hyperliquid's entry into the U.S. will not only benefit itself—more decentralized products and companies in its portfolio will also benefit—and it will bring more liquidity to international centralized exchanges, giving U.S. users more competitive prices when buying and selling crypto assets. At this stage, the crypto market is far from saturated, and competition between platforms is not the primary issue.
