CFTC review considers regulated perpetual contracts for crude oil and natural gas trading 24/7

Hyperliquid Policy Center and trade[XYZ] have requested the CFTC to allow regulated perpetual contracts linked to WTI crude, Brent crude, and Henry Hub natural gas, citing over $500 billion in cumulative trading volume since October 2025. These contracts enable continuous trading, including weekends, which could help U.S. firms hedge energy exposure during market closures. The filing proposes stablecoin margin use, leverage limits, and onchain market infrastructure to support continuous operations. The CFTC is reviewing public comments on extending energy futures trading hours and listing perpetual contracts, but no approval has been granted yet.
