What the News on SEC Really Means for Crypto

The SEC recently announced a roundtable, set for October 17, to focus on privacy tools in the crypto space. Commissioner Hester Peirce is leading the discussion, which will cover things like financial surveillance and zero-knowledge proofs. This move signals a more open approach to crypto which is also big news for anyone watching SEC closely.

Some say this could clear the path for long-stalled ETF approvals. Even delays in cases like Bitwise’s Dogecoin fund are now seen as procedural rather than problematic. Others believe the policy shift could bring new capital into the DeFi space.

Meanwhile, OpenAI’s chip development deal with Broadcom gave AI coins like Worldcoin a boost, which saw it jump WLD to more than 100%. But even with that tech buzz, it’s the regulatory updates that are doing most of the heavy lifting this week.

Will Hyperliquid USDH End Circle and USDC? CIRCL Stock Plummets

By Akiyama Felix

Stablecoin issuance is a lucrative business, and in 2025, Hyperliquid, a leading decentralized derivatives trading platform generating at least $400 billion in trading volume, is set to launch its platform-specific stablecoin. While Circle’s USDC holds a larger market share, powering popular trading pairs like HYPE USDC, Hyperliquid believes a native stablecoin could funnel profits to HYPE crypto holders.

According to Coingecko, the total stablecoin market cap exceeds $290 billion. USDT leads, commanding nearly 50% of the market with over $169 billion in circulation, primarily on Tron and Ethereum. USDC, the second largest, has issued over $72 billion, with a major presence on Solana and Hyperliquid.

Due to its ease of redemption back to USD, USDC is the go-to stablecoin, powering Hyperliquid’s community-driven liquidity provision, enabling the platform to process billions in monthly trading volume. Circle issues USDC in compliance with U.S. regulations, clarified further by the GENIUS Act, which outlines requirements for stablecoin issuers tracking the USD on major public chains.
