Nasdaq-listed Lion Group Holding Ltd. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LGHL#NASDAQ">LGHL</a>) saw its stock rise 20% after announcing a $600 million facility to support a large-scale crypto treasury anchored in Hyperliquid (CRYPTO: HYPE), Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>), and Sui (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">SUI</a>).
The strategic financing agreement, secured from ATW Partners, signals Lion Group's reentry into digital asset markets. 
The company aims to build what it describes as the "largest HYPE treasury globally," positioning Hyperliquid—a decentralized perpetuals exchange protocol—as the primary reserve asset on its balance sheet.
The <a href="https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/lghl-secures-600-million-facility-to-launch-hyperliquid-hype-treasury-302485190.html">announcement</a>, released on June 18, drove LGHL shares up by over 20% during regular market hours to $3.33, according to Google Finance data. 
The surge came amid broader weakness in global equity indices, underlining investor interest in the company's crypto strategy pivot.
"Hyperliquid represents a natural extension of LGHL&#8217;s existing derivatives business into decentralized markets," said CEO Wilson Wang. "We view protocols like HYPE, with decentralized sequencing, as foundational to building scalable DeFi systems."

The treasury plan also includes custody and staking of SOL and SUI assets with BitGo Trust Company, a major U.S. digital asset custodian. 
BitGo will provide infrastructure for secure storage, compliance, and validator services. 
CEO Mike Belshe noted that the deal marks a significant signal that institutions are shifting toward next-generation blockchain assets.
"This $600 million facility reflects a clear signal that institutional investors are accelerating their diversification into next-generation blockchain ecosystems," said Belshe.
The company also disclosed it is evaluating secondary listings on the Tokyo Stock Exchange and Singapore Exchange to broaden its investor base and introduce what could be the first HYPE treasury listed in Asia.
The facility's first tranche, $10.6 million in subscription amount, is expected to close within 48 hours. 
Chardan served as the sole placement agent.

Imagine buying a TV online and paying $500, only to find out someone else paid $400 for the exact same one, and another person got it for $350. No discounts. No loyalty cards. Just different prices for different people.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Hidden Cost Of Personalized Pricing</h2>
&#8220;You&#8217;d be outraged,&#8221; said former Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan in a new <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cbtUYshYM8">video</a> posted by economist and former Labor Secretary Robert Reich. &#8220;You would demand to know why you were being charged more than someone else for the exact same TV, on the exact same day.&#8221;

</ul>
As Reich said, it&#8217;s a &#8220;shady new way to charge you more for something than anyone else is paying,&#8221; and according to Khan, that scenario isn't hypothetical. It&#8217;s already happening, quietly and behind the scenes. The tactic is called surveillance pricing, and it uses your personal data to determine how much you&#8217;re charged. &#8220;Businesses may be using this trove of personal information to charge each of us a different price for the exact same product or service,&#8221; she explained.
Our phones and computers <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/09/40946073/no-privacy-for-profits-sake-ftc-calls-out-amazon-meta-big-tech-for-exposing-users-to-host-of-harms">collect huge amounts of data</a> on us every day. Companies tap into that data—like your location, income level, browsing habits, even your mouse movements—to figure out your &#8220;pain point,&#8221; or the highest price you&#8217;re likely to pay.
&#8220;And unlike being in a physical store where you generally see the same price tag as everyone else,&#8221; Khan said, &#8220;online shopping is an individualized experience.&#8221;
The goal? Maximize profit by charging each person as much as possible, without them even realizing it.
Trending: Maximize saving for your retirement and cut down on taxes: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/wideradvisor-retirement-planning">Schedule your free call with a financial advisor to start your financial journey – no cost, no obligation</a>.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Real-World Examples Are Already Out There</h2>
This isn&#8217;t just theory. It's already happening across industries. Here are some examples Khan mentioned in the video:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>The Princeton Review charged higher prices for test prep to customers in ZIP codes with higher Asian populations.</li>
<li>Rideshare apps charged more to users with low phone battery life.</li>
<li>People booking hotel rooms from wealthier cities like San Francisco were shown prices up to $500 higher per night.</li>
<li>Some internet providers charged the same fees for slower speeds in poorer, less white neighborhoods.</li>
</ul>
&#8220;These surveillance practices are opaque, so we don&#8217;t know the full extent of how our personal information is being used against us,&#8221; Khan said.
This goes further than mere inconvenience: it results in higher charges precisely when people are at their most vulnerable. For example, if you're a new parent searching for medicine, you could get hit with higher prices. If someone dies and you need a last-minute flight, your <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/09/41019443/ftc-chair-lina-khan-warns-airlines-may-exploit-ai-for-price-discrimination-raising-concerns-over">costs could jump</a> just because of an email about funeral arrangements, Khan explained.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What Can Be Done About It?</h2>
Even though she&#8217;s not at the head of the FTC anymore, Khan says the agency should keep investigating. &#8220;Americans deserve to know how their private data is being used,&#8221; Khan said. And stronger laws are needed to protect people from this kind of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43063862/whats-going-on-with-pepsico-stock-today">price discrimination</a>.
Some states are already proposing laws to ban surveillance pricing outright.
In the meantime, there are a few steps individuals can take. For instance, regularly clear your cookies and browsing history, and use a virtual private network or private browser to limit data collection.
&#8220;Businesses shouldn&#8217;t be able to weaponize our own data against us,&#8221; Khan concluded in the video. &#8220;Charging each of us a different price just because they can.&#8221;

<h3>The Relevance of Insider Transactions</h3>
While insider transactions provide valuable information, they should be part of a broader analysis in making investment decisions.
When discussing legal matters, the term "insider" refers to any officer, director, or beneficial owner holding more than ten percent of a company's equity securities, as stipulated in Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This includes executives in the c-suite and significant hedge funds. Such insiders are required to report their transactions through a Form 4 filing, which must be completed within two business days of the transaction.
A new purchase by a company insider is a indication that they anticipate the stock will rise.
On the other hand, insider sells may not necessarily indicate a bearish view and can be motivated by various factors.

<h3>Illuminating the Importance of Insider Transactions</h3>
Investors should view insider transactions as part of a multifaceted analysis and not rely solely on them for decision-making.
Considering the legal perspective, an "insider" is defined as any officer, director, or beneficial owner holding more than ten percent of a company's equity securities, according to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This includes executives in the c-suite and major hedge funds. These insiders are mandated to disclose their transactions through a Form 4 filing, to be submitted within two business days of the transaction.
Pointing towards optimism, a company insider's new purchase signals their positive anticipation for the stock to rise.
Nevertheless, insider sells may not necessarily indicate a bearish view and can be influenced by various factors.

<h3>The Relevance of Insider Transactions</h3>
Insider transactions shouldn't be used primarily to make an investing decision, however, they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
In legal terms, an "insider" refers to any officer, director, or beneficial owner of more than ten percent of a company's equity securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This can include executives in the c-suite and large hedge funds. These insiders are required to let the public know of their transactions via a Form 4 filing, which must be filed within two business days of the transaction.
When a company insider makes a new purchase, that is an indication that they expect the stock to rise.
Insider sells, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean that the seller thinks the stock will go down. 
<h3>Unlocking the Meaning of Transaction Codes</h3>
Navigating through the landscape of transactions, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">investors</a> often prioritize those unfolding in the open market, precisely detailed in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 denotes a purchase, while S signifies a sale. Transaction code C signals the conversion of an option, and transaction code A denotes a grant, award, or other acquisition of securities from the company.

<h3>Why Insider Transactions Are Important</h3>
Insightful as they may be, insider transactions should be considered alongside a thorough examination of other investment criteria.
In the realm of legality, an "insider" is defined as any officer, director, or beneficial owner holding more than ten percent of a company's equity securities under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This includes executives in the c-suite and major hedge funds. These insiders are required to disclose their transactions through a Form 4 filing, to be submitted within two business days of the transaction.
Notably, when a company insider makes a new purchase, it is considered an indicator of their positive expectations for the stock.
Conversely, insider sells may not necessarily signal a bearish stance on the stock and can be motivated by various factors.

<h3>Why Congressional Transactions Matter</h3>
A congressional transaction is when any representative or senator either buys or sells an individual stock.
Anyone working in Congress must file a Periodic Transaction Report to inform the public of their recent transaction within 30 days of being notified of the transaction and within 45 days of the transaction date.
In April 2012, Former President Barack Obama signed the STOCK Act into law. The act prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them by their position for personal gain such as buying or selling a stock. The act also expanded disclosure requirements for members of Congress by requiring them to file a monthly disclosure.
<h3>The Importance of Congressional Transactions</h3>
Congressional transactions shouldn't be the primary reason for an investing decision, but they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
When a senator or representative makes a new purchase, it could be an indication they expect the stock to rise.
A sale, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean the seller thinks the stock will go down.
