$HYPE — the platform's native token — fell by over 5% on the news, though many point out that the incumbents' alarm might also reflect Hyperliquid's growing market power. What do you think? Tell me at mgindis@bloomberg.net

Kalshi, Polymarket spent the last year fighting each other for prediction market dominance. Now they have a new problem (or not): crypto's hottest player is coming for them. *Gift link* in comment to the deep dive on HIP-4 and Hyperliquid that I did before my OOO

Allow me to soapbox for a moment:
@FCC has one of the best US gov comment databases. You can search across a company's filings (great for regulators, reporters, investors, competitors!) and by keyword.
Easy & transparent..for anyone out there considering comment database design

Slightly confusing to announce a shift of public comments portal 2 days before the comment deadline on a major rulemaking initiative (an April 30 deadline on prediction markets ANPRM)...
Though this announcement indicates the new portal only applies to future rules...

Note that its a concept release, not a proposal, which generally means that any change is quarters, if not years, away.
