U.S. SEC closes comment period on crypto rules; Hyperliquid calls for five key changes
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is set to close its comment period on proposed rules for certain investment contracts involving crypto assets. Industry participants called for clearer standards on whether airdrops are securities and for more specific safe harbor requirements, saying the draft does not sufficiently reduce legal uncertainty for startups. Hyperliquid Policy Center asked for five key changes, including oversight coordination and secondary-market considerations, while reactions from market participants were largely positive.
