Bitcoin surged to about $78,200—its highest since May and on track for near-$80k—while Hyperliquid, a decentralized perpetual futures platform, posted record activity and a roughly 195% year-to-date rise in its HYPE token, drawing substantial trading volume away from spot BTC. The rally was supported by macro factors and earlier short liquidations, and it comes amid ongoing U.S. regulatory chatter—Trump’s push for crypto framework and the CFTC’s push for clearer rules—which has boosted sentiment in the crypto space.

It could prompt regulated rivals like Kalshi, Coinbase, and ICE to offer similar products, while concerns about leverage, price manipulation, and access for US traders persist.
