President Trump said US regulators are working to bring Hyperliquid, a fast-growing crypto platform, into the country. The move represents a significant shift toward bringing major offshore cryptocurrency infrastructure under domestic oversight.

Trump's statement marks one of the clearest signals yet that the White House intends to pull a major piece of the crypto industry's offshore market infrastructure onshore. Hyperliquid operates as a decentralized derivatives exchange and has gained substantial traction in the cryptocurrency sector. The platform's potential relocation would require regulatory approval and coordination between multiple US agencies. The announcement suggests a policy shift toward integrating rather than restricting crypto platforms. Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Dushyant Shahrawat commented on the development during an appearance on Bloomberg Crypto. The move could reshape how crypto infrastructure operates within US jurisdictions, potentially affecting other offshore platforms operating in similar spaces. Details on timeline, regulatory requirements, and conditions remain unclear.
