  • Hyperliquid Co-Founder: On-Chain Financial Differentiation Lies in Self-Custody and Transparency, Not 24/7 Trading

    On September 30, according to The Block, Hyperliquid co-founder Jeff Yan stated during the Korea Blockchain Week that 24/7 trading is not the key differentiator of on-chain venues compared to traditional exchanges. He believes the lasting advantages of on-chain systems lie in self-custody and transparency: users retain control over their own funds, which is particularly crucial when issues arise with counterparties, intermediaries, or custodians. Transparency allows users to theoretically understand everything about the system, a level of trust and neutrality that centralized institutions struggle to provide. He also mentioned that continuous trading still holds value for assets (such as commodities, stocks, and pre-IPO targets) that lack public pricing during traditional exchange closures; he believes the private equity market presents the next significant opportunity for 24/7 trading.

  • Federal Reserve Approves Stress Test Reforms 6-1, Major Victory for Wall Street Banks

    On September 30, the Federal Reserve Board voted 6-1 to approve revisions to the annual stress tests, which is seen as a significant victory for large lending institutions on Wall Street. Vice Chair for Supervision, Michelle Bowman, stated that stress tests are a crucial component of the regulatory capital framework, and the reforms enhance transparency, specificity, and risk sensitivity, thereby maintaining their robustness. The Federal Reserve noted that the two finalized rules are largely consistent with those proposed in 2025, which were welcomed by the banking sector at the time. The stress tests were established after the 2008 financial crisis to assess the resilience of Wall Street institutions under hypothetical economic recession scenarios. Additionally, the Federal Reserve solicited feedback on a plan aimed at better reflecting the differences in banks' fee income business models.
