$CARDS generates almost the same revenue as $VVV which is at 1B+ market cap but because its on solana instead of base & the zoomers have decided to only bid memes it still sits at $40M

it is silly to abide by the existing framework of laws around how financial exchanges work when we are creating a completely new system from the ground up
@HyperliquidX would not exist if they attempted to fit into the existing system, neither would many other crypto protocols, there is a reason that they have to come up with new definitions in the Clarity Act for protocols that previously they did not have the sufficient regulatory definitions for, makes more sense to believe that the new laws will be structured to best accommodate the most successful crypto startups, of which Hyperliquid is clearly at the forefront, Jeff & co have said that they have had ongoing conversations with US lawmakers and continue to be surprised with how much they are learning how Hyperliquid works, the ICE has also made similar comments that have been positive
yes they are closed source, and yes they started with a small colocated validator set, but it is objectively true that they would not have been able to have as much success as they have so far without those core decisions at the beginning, it also is not as if they are not attempting to move to a more permissionless and decentralized construction as they've added more validators to the valset that did not exist when they first started that are not directly a part of the Hyperliquid team, i believe it's around ~25? but i know it isn't all from just their team and there are other people running validators
what people are underdiscussing currently with the future optimistic case regarding Hyperliquid, is that for the first time we have a pro-crypto president and a pro-crypto admin who both understand the importance of being early and supportive of these technologies but also understand how much money can be made if it is architected properly, now if you look at how Hyperliquid is designed with builder codes and HIP-3 it will benefit from a large # of exchanges and frontends being built on top of its core infrastructure and utilizing the deep liquidity and work that they've done creating a top of class exchange, the reason this should be important to Trump and the US govt if they understand it properly:
if Hyperliquid is successful and they become the AWS of liquidity for financial exchanges supporting perpetual futures, while USDC is the underlying stablecoin on the exchange, by default they will be creating a huge amount of demand for USD and extending the dominance of the dollar hegemony globally
they want everyone using US dollars, and the future state of the world a lot of that is going to be digital, the reason Clarity Act has been able to actually get support in Congress is because they understand the importance of stablecoins in the future and how they will continue to become more popular, in the same way that Trump has been outwardly supportive of companies that he believes are doing great innovative work in their respective industries like Dell, Ford, Intel etc. it is very likely that he will be as supportive with crypto companies if they are able to convey the value prop of Hyperliquid doing well effectively, I have confidence in @chameleon_jeff & @HyperliquidPC to correctly illustrate this opportunity to lawmakers
if I can see this thesis clearly for how building a decentralized perps exchange that many other countries and regions can build their own perps exchanges on top of that ALL use USD-based stablecoins underneath the hood, then i imagine it will be just as easy for others to see as well, we've already seen Trump support similar financial infrastructure with the Trump accounts through Robinhood, so not that farfetched IMO
