CME Is Suing the CFTC Over Perps. Here's Why

September 3, 2026

Recorded live at the RWA Summit, this panel brings together Cathy Yoon (General Counsel, Temporal), Tiffany J. Smith (Partner, WilmerHale), and Jake Chervinsky (CEO, Hyperliquid Policy Center) to debate whether perpetual futures should be regulated as futures or swaps under US law. They cover CME's lawsuit against the CFTC, the jurisdictional split between the CFTC and SEC, and what it would mean for Hyperliquid to come onshore through Kraken's Bitnomial. Moderated by Laura Shin.
