CZ Sees Surge of US-Accessible Perp DEXs Under Trump
Binance founder Changpeng Zhao predicts that the number of US-accessible decentralized perpetual futures exchanges (perp DEXs) will surge under the Trump administration. This prediction comes after President Donald Trump mentioned bringing Hyperliquid, a leading perp DEX, to the US.
The CFTC's involvement suggests a more collaborative approach to regulating DeFi protocols, potentially paving the way for other similar platforms to seek compliance and offer services to US traders.
Zhao's comments underscore a broader industry expectation: that the current political climate is more favorable to crypto innovation than previous years. If more perp DEXs gain access to the US market, it could increase competition, improve liquidity, and offer traders more diverse options for leveraged trading.
