Bitwise Asset Management and the Hyperliquid Policy Center are pressing the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to revise its proposed crypto rules, seeking clearer guidance on token classifications, airdrops and secondary-market trading in comment letters submitted Monday. The requests come as the SEC closes public comments Tuesday on its proposed Regulation Crypto Assets, which would create exemptions for qualifying crypto fundraising and a conditional safe harbor for tokens associated with investment contracts. In an Oct. 19 comment letter, Bitwise Asset Management urged the SEC to clarify how investment managers should determine whether a crypto asset is subject to securities laws, arguing that managers need a standard they can apply using “publicly available information.” The firm also sought clearer rules on when managers can rely on an issuer’s proposed Form TR filing, which would certify that an investment contract has ceased to exist, and how they should assess tokens when no such filing exists.

United Airlines forecasts quarterly profit well below estimates as fuel costs bite
Open this photo in gallery:A United Airlines plane at Chicago O'Hare International Airport in November, 2025. Adam Gray/The Canadian PressUnited Airlines UAL-Q on Tuesday forecast fourth-quarter profit well below Wall Street estimates, despite expectations for record revenue, as soaring fuel costs threatened to offset gains from strong travel demand and higher ticket prices. The Chicago-based carrier expects adjusted earnings of 50 cents to US$1.50 per share for the December quarter. LSEG data shows an average analyst estimate of US$1.76. The US$1 midpoint of the carrier’s outlook is 43 per cent below expectations. Even strong demand and sharply higher fares have been insufficient to shield airline profits from the fuel shock. US airfares rose an average of nearly 23 per cent year-on-year in the seven months through September, government data showed. United expects to pay US$4.80 a gallon for jet fuel in the fourth quarter, about 45 cents more than the market consensus assumption. The difference translates into roughly US$1 per share in earnings, the company said.
