Hyperliquid’s HYPE token rose more than 17% in the past 24 hours to around $46 after the U.S. Senate Banking Committee advanced the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act in a 15-9 bipartisan vote, a move traders viewed as a meaningful step toward clearer federal rules for digital assets.
The committee action on Thursday pushes the bill closer to setting out how crypto assets would be classified and supervised in the U.S. For markets, the immediate takeaway was reduced regulatory uncertainty. That broader shift in tone also lifted interest in newer infrastructure plays, including LiquidChain (LIQUID), which says it is building cross-chain liquidity across Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana. The project has raised $761,000 so far and says it is on course to pass $1 million in Q2.
The Senate Banking Committee debated amendments for several hours before approving the Clarity Act. The legislation is designed to draw clearer boundaries between securities and commodities, define oversight roles for the SEC and CFTC, and create a more predictable market structure framework for the industry.
While political differences remain, the bipartisan vote marks a notable milestone after months of negotiations. For crypto businesses and investors, a clearer framework is widely seen as important for reducing compliance ambiguity and supporting broader market participation.
That reaction was visible in Hyperliquid, where traders zeroed in on HYPE’s momentum. Analyst 0xNeena said the token is now testing the $48 resistance area, with a break above that level potentially opening a move toward $60 if volume continues to build.

LiquidChain pitches a cross-chain liquidity layer
Against that backdrop, LiquidChain (LIQUID) is positioning itself as a Layer 3 blockchain intended to combine Bitcoin liquidity, Ethereum DeFi functionality, and Solana throughput in a single execution layer. According to the project, the aim is to create shared liquidity pools where assets from the three networks can interact directly without wrapping.
LiquidChain also says developers will have access to a high-performance virtual machine, alongside trust-minimized cross-chain proofs and messaging for atomic settlement. The pitch is aimed at one of the market’s more persistent infrastructure problems: fragmented capital and limited interoperability across major chains.
The final layer emerges.
LiquidChain is the future.

On tokenomics, LIQUID has a total supply of 11.8 billion tokens, with the largest allocation set aside for development and ecosystem growth. The presale has raised $761,000 to date, and the project says it remains on track to clear the $1 million mark by the end of Q2.
Presale terms and access points
Investors can purchase LIQUID through the official LiquidChain presale website. The project says buyers can use ETH, BTC, SOL, BNB, USDT, or USDC, as well as a bank card.
For mobile users, LIQUID is also available through the Best Wallet app, which can be downloaded via the Apple App Store or Google Play. In the app, the token appears under the “Upcoming Tokens” section, and the wallet also connects to the project’s presale widget for purchases and future claims.
The project says LIQUID staking currently offers a 1,441% APY, while the token remains priced at $0.01459 in the presale. Supporters argue that if regulatory clarity improves and demand for cross-chain infrastructure grows, projects focused on utility could benefit disproportionately.
