What it means

Traders using Hypercall are the main group that notices this now, because the platform’s volume has been concentrated in S&P 500 options and its contracts trade around the clock. The broader market for index-linked crypto derivatives also sees a sign that this venue is handling substantial activity in U.S. equity index exposure through USDC-settled contracts.

In practice, the setup already allows daily, weekly, and monthly expiries at any time of day, and that part remains in place. What stands out is the scale of activity tied to the S&P 500, with most of the reported volume and nearly all of the open interest tied to that market segment. (per crypto-economy.com)
