**[Hyperliquid Policy Center Sends Letter to CFTC: Open Compliance Pathways for Decentralized Prediction Markets]** Odaily Planet Daily News – The Hyperliquid Policy Center (HPC) announced that it has formally submitted a comment letter to the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) regarding the Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM) on prediction markets. HPC advocates for the establishment of a clear compliance pathway for decentralized prediction markets based on public, permissionless blockchains, while improving the regulatory framework for centralized prediction markets. In the letter, HPC urges the CFTC to develop more flexible, function-oriented rules to accommodate decentralized market structures; establish clear legal channels for U.S. market participants to access decentralized prediction markets; and promote the U.S. as a leader in decentralized financial innovation. HPC states that prediction markets are a natural extension of the federal derivatives framework, enabling participants to directly manage economic risk exposure to real-world events and aggregate dispersed information through continuously updated market prices. Their price discovery capabilities have been widely validated, often outperforming traditional polling and expert forecasts. HPC highlights the advantages of decentralized prediction markets based on public blockchains, including transparency, non-custodial operations, and high resilience. These markets do not rely on centralized operators holding user funds and eliminate single points of failure. All transactions are recorded in real-time on public ledgers, facilitating regulatory oversight and market supervision, while ensuring more transparent and uniform market access standards. HPC emphasizes that current rulemaking should not entrench reliance on single exchange operators, custodial intermediaries, or traditional settlement monitoring mechanisms, as this would hinder U.S. users from legally participating in decentralized prediction markets. HPC states that it will continue to advocate for compliant access for U.S. market participants to Hyperliquid and HIP-4 outcome markets, and will maintain communication with the CFTC.
