Hyperliquid Strategies said a subsidiary has applied for registration as a US futures commission merchant, a step toward serving US clients trading perpetual futures. The planned service would operate on permissioned markets under Hyperliquid's proposed HIP-3 framework, subject to approval.
Why it matters
The application would extend the publicly traded HYPE treasury company's activities into futures services. Hyperliquid Strategies, listed on Nasdaq as PURR, describes itself as the largest publicly traded HYPE treasury firm.
Market impact
The company reported $620.6 million in net income for the quarter ended September 30, primarily driven by $803 million in unrealized gains on HYPE holdings. Unrealized gains reflect changes in the value of assets that have not been sold.
Hyperliquid Strategies raised $911 million in equity capital during the quarter and spent $785 million acquiring approximately 9.1 million HYPE. Its holdings totaled approximately 38.9 million HYPE as of October 28, at an average cost of $56.35 per token.
