The Hyperliquid Policy Center (HPC) has requested the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) to allow regulated U.S. exchanges to list futures and perpetual contracts based on AI compute prices, such as GPU-hour rental and AI inference token prices. These contracts aim to help businesses like data centers, AI developers, and lenders hedge against the volatility of computing costs. HPC also proposes standards for compute price indexes, options for different settlement indexes, and market safeguards to prevent manipulation. This request is separate from Payward's plan to offer onchain perpetual futures through Hyperliquid's HIP-3 framework, which awaits regulatory approval. The CFTC has sought public comments but has not yet approved these contracts.
