  • Hyperliquid is redefining decentralized derivatives with CEX-grade speed and a fully on-chain order book, aiming to capture 50% of new DeFi volume.
  • The $HYPE token powers the ecosystem, serving as the currency for fees, staking, and governance, with a capped supply of 1 billion tokens.
  • With 200,000 orders per second and a roadmap focused on attracting billion-dollar protocols, Hyperliquid is positioned for rapid DeFi expansion.

Hyperliquid, a high-performance Layer 1 blockchain, is reshaping decentralized derivatives by delivering CEX-grade speed with on-chain transparency. Built for capital markets, it fuses ultra-low latency infrastructure with a fully public, permissionless order book — quickly emerging as one of the hottest DeFi solutions in the space. So, let us dive in and take a closer look at the project.

What is Hyperliquid?

Hyperliquid is a purpose-built blockchain designed to create a fully on-chain open financial system. Unlike traditional decentralized exchanges (DEXs) that rely on Automated Market Makers (AMMs) or off-chain order books, Hyperliquid employs a fully on-chain order book model, ensuring instant trade execution, deep liquidity, and transparency.

What sets Hyperliquid apart is its commitment to complete on-chain transparency — no off-chain matching, no AMMs, no private investors. Every order, trade, and liquidation is executed fully on-chain with sub-second finality. It is a platform where traders, builders, and capital meet on neutral ground, underpinned by performance that rivals top-tier CEXs while retaining DeFi’s core values.

How Does it Work?

At its core, Hyperliquid operates on a dual-state execution model:

  • HyperCore – Handles perpetual futures and spot order books, processing 200,000 orders per second with one-block finality.
  • HyperEVM – A general-purpose smart contract platform, enabling DeFi applications, lending protocols, and NFT marketplaces to leverage Hyperliquid’s liquidity.

All in all, this dual-layer system ensures seamless interaction between liquidity pools and decentralized applications, creating a unified infrastructure for efficient capital movement.

$HYPE and Its Utility

The $HYPE token is the backbone of the Hyperliquid ecosystem, serving multiple functions:

  • Transaction Fees – Used for paying trading fees, with discounts available.
  • Staking – Supports network security and incentivizes participation.
  • Governance – Grants voting rights for Hyperliquid Improvement Proposals (HIPs).

Tokenomics and Distribution

The total supply of $HYPE is capped at 1 billion tokens, with a well-structured distribution plan to ensure long-term sustainability and community involvement. This includes:

  • 31% (310 million) for airdrops to early users, incentivizing community participation.
  • 38.9% (389 million) for staking rewards and incentives, encouraging network security and growth.
  • 23.8% (238 million) for contributors, with a 1-year lockup and linear release.
  • 6.3% (63 million) for team and advisors, with a vesting period.

Roadmap and Future Plans

Looking ahead, Hyperliquid’s roadmap is designed for rapid scaling and long-term sustainability. Key milestones include:

  • Incentivizing Builders – Expanding builder codes to decentralize access and attract billion-dollar protocols to the ecosystem.
  • Liquidity Leadership – Positioning Hyperliquid to capture 50% of new DeFi volume, offering CEX-level liquidity while remaining fully decentralized.

And with daily trading volumes in the billions and cumulative trading volume nearing $1 trillion, it is rapidly establishing itself as a leading force in the space. So, as it continues to scale, it will be interesting to see how Hyperliquid drives mass adoption of DeFi.
