What is Hyperliquid?
Hyperliquid is a purpose-built Layer 1 blockchain that focuses on delivering high-performance decentralized finance applications. At its core is the Hyperliquid DEX, a fully on-chain orderbook perpetuals exchange that combines the speed of centralized exchanges with the security benefits of decentralization. The platform supports both perpetual futures and spot trading, with additional features including a native token standard and permissionless liquidity provision.
The ecosystem operates using the HYPE token, which was initially distributed through a points-based system to early users. The platform has shown significant growth since its alpha launch in 2023, attracting traders with its efficient execution and comprehensive feature set.
