According to Forbes, the decentralized derivatives platform Hyperliquid has launched the pre-IPO perpetual contract for SpaceX (SPCX-USDC) on Trade.xyz, sparking a global regulatory gray area controversy. This contract allows leveraged trading without holding any shares of SpaceX and has not been authorized by the company, with an initial reference price of $150, corresponding to an implied valuation of approximately $1.78 trillion, which quickly surged to $216.

It is reported that this contract is settled in USDC, with prices derived from market oracles, and is not linked to SpaceX's actual financials or equity structure. SpaceX itself has neither authorized nor participated in this market, yet its valuation is being priced and traded in real-time on-chain, leading to the controversy of "private company price discovery being taken over by decentralized derivatives." This market originates from Hyperliquid's HIP-3 mechanism, which supports the notion that the valuations of private companies may be being repriced by on-chain derivatives, while the regulatory framework has yet to be established.
