ANIME has converted from a hyperp (pre-launch) to a regular perp.

By community request, you can now long or short pre-launch $ANIME with up to 3x leverage. Hyperps do not rely on any external data for the oracle price. Hyperps trade like perpetual contracts that users are familiar with, but do not require an external spot or index oracle price. Instead, the funding rate is determined relative to a moving average of the hyperp mark price. This makes the hyperp price more stable and less susceptible to manipulation, unlike usual pre-launch futures. Trading is on low leverage and isolated margin only. Beware of low liquidity, high volatility, potentially extreme funding, and increased liquidation risk. Note: ANIME-USD will convert to a vanilla perp upon CEX spot listing. ANIME-USD is a hyperp contract that poses higher than normal risk. Do not trade contracts you are unfamiliar with and do not understand the risks for. Read the Docs to learn more about the hyperp mechanism and how it differs from vanilla perps. NFA. https://app.hyperliquid.xyz/trade/ANIME

In accordance with its onchain mandate to securely preserve value and support the Hyperliquid community, the assistance fund will begin holding a diverse set of native assets on Hyperliquid. Selection criteria include a fair initial distribution, decentralized ownership, Hyperliquid-first native deployment, and a demonstrated positive impact for the Hyperliquid community. Among qualifying assets, the Hyper Foundation will initially decide on inclusion and relative representation. Over time, governance will take over this responsibility. The pilot asset added to the assistance fund is PURR. The assistance fund initially will hold 3M PURR, which accounts for approximately 0.5% of the total supply at the time of inclusion.

SOLV is the first token with Day 1 CEX and Hyperliquid spot listings. SOLV is launching simultaneously on the Hyperliquid L1 and BNB chain on Friday.

The black market for testnet HYPE is strongly condemned. As stated many times, testnet is meant to be an open environment for users and builders to test the technology. To ensure fairness, testnet will undergo the following changes in the coming days: + The existing testnet USDC faucet functionality will be removed from the ERC20 smart contract + The new testnet USDC faucet will only work for existing mainnet addresses to prevent spam + Testnet HYPE balances will be reset to genesis balances + Existing testnet USDC balances will be zeroed out for all addresses + Testnet validators will be able to apply for testnet delegations once the Hyper Foundation Delegation Program is live The next phase of mainnet validators will be permissionless. Once validators are permissionless on mainnet, anyone who meets the self-delegation requirement will be able to register a validator and apply for the Delegation Program.

The multi-sig UI is available for testing at app.hyperliquid-testnet.xyz/multisig. This is an advanced feature. Unlike most other chains, multi-sig is a primitive built natively into the Hyperliquid L1 instead of requiring smart contracts. Please read the Docs (https://hyperliquid.gitbook.io/hyperliquid-docs/hyperliquid-l1/multi-sig) to understand the details. Note that the UI is intended as a proof of concept for what interfaces can be built. For example, the multi-sig primitive supports all actions onchain even though the UI only supports a few. As always, any bug reports are greatly appreciated.

2024 in Review Hyperliquid started 2024 as a barely-known perp dex and ended the year as one of the largest decentralized financial hubs, processing billions in volume per day with a thriving ecosystem of builders, traders, and community members. Thank you to everyone who came together for a record-breaking 2024. All of this was achieved without taking any external funding and giving all trading fees to the community. Part of what makes Hyperliquid special is how the community is its strongest advocate and the largest beneficiary of its success. It’s humbling to see Hyperliquid’s vision resonate with so many of you. Hyperliquid was built with a strong belief in returning to the core ethos of crypto — changing entrenched and predatory centralized practices to be fair and permissionless. In 2025, even more builders and users will join the flourishing ecosystem on a mission to house all finance. Looking back on 2024, some milestones and metrics are highlighted in the post below. https://hyperfnd.medium.com/2024-in-review-28c472091320

Staking is now live on mainnet. Staking is an important milestone for Hyperliquid because it allows the diverse community of HYPE stakers to collectively secure the network. Like other proof of stake networks, new blocks on Hyperliquid are proposed by validators in proportion to the HYPE staked to them. Staking is a serious responsibility for the Hyperliquid community. Users can stake HYPE to a trusted validator and earn staking rewards in HYPE. Users may consider different metrics when choosing which validators to stake to, such as uptime, commission, reputation, and community contributions. The Hyper Foundation will have a Delegation Program to support high-performing validators and further decentralise the network. More information about the program will be announced. Note that locked tokens may be staked, but their rewards are locked.

Max leverage has been updated for various assets. Increases in max leverage reflect improved liquidity. Decreases in max leverage ensure platform stability during extreme volatility. Note that max leverage decreases do not affect the liquidation price of open positions until they are modified. To reduce positions that exceed initial margin requirements under the new max leverage, use reduce-only orders. The first non-reduce-only order that modifies a position will subject it to the new max leverage and maintenance margin requirements. As a reminder, maintenance margin is half of the initial margin at max leverage. E.g., if max leverage is 20x, the maintenance margin is 2.5%.
