Image: Crypto.newsThe Hyperliquid Policy Center filed a comment letter with five recommendations to the SEC's proposed Regulation Crypto Assets framework. The suggestions target token airdrops, secondary trading, automated buybacks, developer protections and state securities preemption. The draft would let qualifying projects raise up to $5 million over four years or up to $75 million annually under separate exemptions. The group says clearer rules could keep development in the United States.
