Kraken Parent Plans Regulated Hyperliquid Perps
The plan would route U.S. trades through Bitnomial and NinjaTrader Clearing, with permissioned access and no launch date set, Payward said.
- On Wednesday, September 16, Payward announced plans to offer perpetual futures to US clients using Hyperliquid's HIP-3 infrastructure, subject to regulatory approval.
- Earlier this year, Payward acquired Bitnomial for $550 million, securing the Commodity Futures Trading Commission -registered exchange and clearinghouse infrastructure needed for domestic derivatives expansion.
- To trade, US clients must open futures accounts with NinjaTrader Clearing, while Bitnomial acts as the HIP-3 deployer managing market keys, allowlists, and regulatory obligations.
- Regulatory clearance and a launch date have not been disclosed, and the proposed contracts remain unavailable to US customers pending final approval.
- Connecting public blockchain infrastructure with regulated entities, the plan expands on Payward's existing perpetual futures business and positions the company in the growing on-chain derivatives market.
