Crypto advertisers can now apply for ad certification directly via a Google Ads account.Googles goal is to simplify compliance and streamline the ad certification process.The company still requires crypto advertisers to have the correct local licenses.　　Google has made it easier for crypto companies to apply for ad certification.

Why Hyperliquid Is Drawing Institutional Attention Beyond Crypto Trading

Despite the optimism, regulation remains one of Hyperliquids biggest uncertainties. Perpetual futures products are still largely unavailable in the United States because they do not fit neatly within existing derivatives regulations.　　As a result, Hyperliquid continues blocking U.S. users.　　However, Grayscale argued that future regulatory clarity around decentralized exchanges and perpetual futures could significantly expand the platforms addressable market.　　The report pointed to growing industry involvement from firms like Coinbase, Kraken, Robinhood, and Kalshi. It also highlighted increasing discussions around perpetual futures regulation within the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.　　If compliant perpetual futures trading eventually becomes allowed in the U.S., Hyperliquid could gain access to one of the worlds largest financial markets.　　Risks Still Exist　　Despite the rapid growth, analysts say risks remain substantial. HYPE remains highly volatile, with annualized volatility estimated near 80%. That is far higher than Bitcoin.　　Grayscale also raised concerns about Hyperliquids relatively centralized validator structure and its closed-source software model. Both issues could worry decentralization advocates.　　Regulation also remains a major long-term uncertainty. If U.S. access stays restricted, future expansion could become more difficult. Still, Hyperliquid has already achieved large-scale real-world usage combined with strong revenue generation.　　That combination is why many investors no longer see Hyperliquid as just another crypto exchange. Instead, they

Trump Claims he can ‘Future Proof’ Crypto Regulation with CLARITY Act

Since its passage by the US House of Representatives in July 2025, the CLARITY Act has faced months of delays in the Senate amid government shutdowns, pushback from crypto and banking industry representatives and concerns over conflicts of interest, including those involving the Trump family. The president or his sons are tied to memecoin projects, the platform World Liberty Financial, that platforms USD1 stablecoin and a Bitcoin mining company.　　Although lawmakers on the Senate Agriculture Committee and Senate Banking Committee have already advanced the CLARITY Act following respective markups in January and May, the bill faces other hurdles before a potential vote in the full chamber. Republicans hold a slim majority in the Senate and will need Democratic votes to pass the bill, but some lawmakers have signaled they will withhold support without provisions on ethics.　　The price of Bitcoin dropped under $73,000 from more than $74,000 in the hours following Trumps pledge to “never let crypto down.” At the time of publication, the price of the biggest cryptocurrency by market cap was $73,467.　　Trumps remarks echoed those of his hand-picked chair of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Paul Atkins, who in October said the agency would work to future-proof “future

SEC Grants Paxos Historic Approval to Clear and Settle US Equities on Blockchain

Charles Cascarilla, the chief executive officer and co-founder of Paxos, highlighted the arduous regulatory journey during the Thursday announcement, stating:　　“Our clearing agency registration is the result of seven years of work with the SEC, beginning with our No-Action Letter in 2019 and the settlement pilot we operated with some of the worlds largest and most sophisticated financial institutions.”　　He further emphasized that the approval allows the company to offer “the most complete infrastructure” for financial partners seeking to evolve alongside the blockchain-enabled tech realm.　　The SECs decision validates a multi-year track record of live clearing and settlement operations because, as far back as February 2020, Paxos had operated under an SEC no-action relief letter, quietly clearing and settling U.S. equities daily for major global broker-dealers, including Credit Suisse, Instinet, and Société Générale.　　With the latest registration secured, Paxos could drastically expand its footprint across global capital markets. The firm, which is already prudentially regulated by the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) and serves as the infrastructure backbone for stablecoins utilized by Paypal and Mastercard, will now push to integrate its clearing network across major trading venues.　　Lastly, while the SEC has frequently utilized regulation by enforcement against digital asset exchanges and decentralized

Perps Lift Crypto Stocks—Robinhood, Coinbase End Week In The Green After CFTC Move

Robinhood (HOOD) and Coinbase (COIN) ended the week‘s final session in the green, with Robinhood’s stock leading the move as US regulators took steps that could expand the local market for crypto derivatives.　　Shares of Robinhood rose sharply, jumping about 11% on the day to close around $94 per share, which also marked the highest level the stock has reached since February.　　Coinbase (COIN) was not far behind, gaining close to 7% as the exchange‘s shares finished the session near $189. That level sits in the middle of the stock’s broader consolidation range of roughly $160 to $215, a band it has been trading within since late March.　　CFTC Sparks HOOD And COIN Rally　　The rally for both companies was widely attributed to action from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).
