As part of the gradual rollout of margin tiers referenced in ⁠previous announcements, margin tiers will be activated for BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, HYPE, and FARTCOIN on June 2 around 03:30 UTC. HYPE and FARTCOIN max leverage will be increasing to 10x. If you have large positions on these assets, it's recommended to try the UI on testnet beforehand to familiarize yourself with the flow when position limits are hit at your current leverage. Note that margin tiers on testnet are much lower for ease of testing. If you need mock USDC and can verify your address, you can open a ticket in the Discord server.

The following post is from Hyperliquid Labs. Hyperliquid Labs is committed to the advancement of defi and its promise in delivering a more open, transparent, and efficient financial system for all. As a contributor to the Hyperliquid blockchain, we believe in defi’s ability not only to meet but to exceed the demands of modern financial markets. In this spirit, Hyperliquid Labs submitted two comment letters to the United States’ Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) in response to its recent Requests for Comment on perpetual derivatives and 24/7 trading. We commend the CFTC for its proactive engagement on these topics, understanding of which is fundamental to the evolution of global markets. We believe that Hyperliquid exemplifies how core defi principles can be put into practice to enhance market efficiency, market integrity, and user protection. Supporting defi in the U.S. with open dialogue and a clear regulatory framework is an opportunity to ensure the U.S. remains a leader in financial innovation while robustly protecting users. Hyperliquid Labs, alongside the broader Hyperliquid community, is committed to being a constructive partner in this journey. We thank the CFTC for its leadership in exploring these critical market innovations and for the opportunity to contribute our perspective.

Margin tiers will go live on mainnet around ~06:00 UTC on May 22. As described previously in the API announcements channel, margin tiers define the max leverage allowed as a function of notional position. Initially, margin tiers will be activated for DOGE, ARB, and OP perps on mainnet. For more information, see the Docs: https://hyperliquid.gitbook.io/hyperliquid-docs/trading/margin-tiers User feedback is greatly appreciated. As a reminder, the onchain implementation of margin tiers on testnet receives mainnet level bug bounty payouts according to https://hyperliquid.gitbook.io/hyperliquid-docs/bug-bounty-program. Note that while UI feedback is appreciated, it is not within scope of the Bug Bounty program.

Staking referral program Builder and referral codes on HyperCore will be upgraded with a staking referral program. Builders and referrers who stake HYPE will be able to keep a percentage of their referred users’ trading fees, up to a maximum of 40% for builders and referrers at the highest staking tier. All builders and referrers with staked HYPE will automatically enjoy these benefits once the feature is enabled on mainnet. Furthermore, builders and referrers will be able to share up to 50% of the staking referral revenue back to the referred user. This allows referrers to offer better than the default rates to new users. User feedback is greatly appreciated. What are builder codes and referral codes? Builder codes allow interfaces routing through Hyperliquid to charge a custom fee on a per-order basis. This additional fee is called a builder fee and goes 100% to the builder. The new staking referral program is strictly more revenue for builders. Referral codes are applied when a user joins via a referral link. Unlike builder codes, referral codes are tied to users and apply regardless of how the user trades in perpetuity. Note that builder codes override referral codes for that order, and referral codes are disabled after the user trades $1B cumulative volume. How it works The staking referral program interacts with staking tier fee discounts and the VIP tier fee schedule. If a builder or referrer has a higher staking tier than their referred user on a trade, they keep up to 100% of the difference. The percentage kept by the builder or referrer decreases as the volume tier of the referred user increases, starting at 100% for VIP 0 and ending at 40% for VIP 6. See Docs for more: https://hyperliquid.gitbook.io/hyperliquid-docs/referrals/staking-referral-program. As an example: Alice has 100k staked HYPE, which gives a trading fee discount of 30%. Bob has 100 staked HYPE, which gives a trading fee discount of 10%, and Bob is at VIP 1. If Bob uses Alice’s builder or referral code, Alice can keep (30% - 10%) * 90% = 18% of the fees that Bob pays. Alice could share with Bob up to 9% of his fees. In other words, Bob could receive up to a 9% trading fee discount using Alice’s builder or referral code. Rollout The staking referral program will be enabled in the coming days on testnet. The mainnet release will follow based on user feedback and stress testing. Note that the rollout on both testnet and mainnet will be incremental. In particular, the option to share up to 50% of staking referral revenue back to the referred users will come in a subsequent upgrade.

Staking and trading account linking is now on mainnet. This allows users to apply the staking discounts from one account to a different trading account. As a reminder, the new fee schedule and staking discounts will take affect at approximately May 5 3:00 UTC. IMPORTANT: Please test staking and trading account linking on testnet first before proceeding on mainnet. Staking links are permanent and cannot be reverted. Do not try this for the first time on mainnet. If you don't see the "Link Staking" button on https://app.hyperliquid.xyz/portfolio, try a hard refresh. Trading fees are assessed onchain at the end of each day in UTC. If you would like your staking discount to take affect with the new fee schedule at May 5 3:00 UTC, make sure to stake beforehand. For details, see the Docs: https://hyperliquid.gitbook.io/hyperliquid-docs/trading/fees#staking-linking

Testnet only: The Hyperliquid protocol will support builder-deployed perps (HIP-3), a key milestone toward fully decentralizing the perp listing process. An MVP of this feature is live on testnet. Feedback is appreciated during this testing phase. Note that numbers and specifications below are not finalized. Builder-deployed perps share many features with HyperCore spot deployments: + Deployments allocate new performant onchain orderbooks on HyperCore. + Deployment gas is paid through a Dutch auction every 31 hours. A difference is that HYPE is the gas token used for perp deployments. + Deployers can set a fee share of up to 50%. A difference is that the deployer can configure additional fees on top of the base fee rate. Fee share applies to the total configured fee. + Deployments are fully permissionless. The deployer of a perp market is also responsible for + Market definition, including the oracle definition and contract specifications + Market operation, including setting oracle prices, leverage limits, and settling the market if needed Perp deployment composes with HyperCore multisig to support protocolized market deployment and operation. To ensure high quality markets and protect users, deployers must maintain 1M staked HYPE. In the event of malicious market operation, validators have the authority to slash the deployer’s stake by conducting a stake-weighted vote during the deployer’s 7-day unstaking queue. Technical details will be released shortly in the API docs and Python SDK. Users with more than 10k mainnet staked HYPE or previous bug bounty program recipients are welcome to reach out for a dedicated testnet deployment to test and share feedback. Note that the frontends at app.hyperliquid-testnet.xyz and app.hyperliquid.xyz will not display builder-deployed perps initially, and will not feature a UI for perp deployment. Alternative interfaces may be built by the community. This will encourage specialization and further decentralization of the interfaces to access the Hyperliquid protocol.
