Hyperliquid Announcements

The CoreWriter system contract was activated on mainnet two weeks ago. CoreWriter and read precompiles allow trustless two-way communication between HyperCore and the HyperEVM, enabling builders to create an entirely new class of HyperEVM applications that interact with the liquidity and performance of HyperCore. For example, LSTs on other chains are usually controlled by an offchain multi-sig because staking occurs outside of the VM. The next generation of Hyperliquid LSTs can be built using read precompiles and CoreWriter for an entirely onchain tokenized staking experience. Furthermore, these onchain LSTs can participate in staking-related functionality through actions initiated from the HyperEVM, such as onchain LST-holder governance to deploy HIP-3 assets. As another example, borrow lend protocols can use read precompiles to incorporate prices from order books on HyperCore into more robust oracle prices. CoreWriter then allows these protocols to trustlessly liquidate undercollateralized positions on HyperCore order books. The seamless composability of HyperCore and the HyperEVM will be essential to enabling builders and bringing finance onchain.

Open interest has reached new all-time highs seven days in a row. Today's OI record was $13.8B. Fees also continue to grow, with a new ATH in 24h fees of $6M.

Weekly update Product & Tech + Two features on testnet are eligible for mainnet level bug bounties: 1) Spot trading with multiple quote assets (USDT and USDZZ on testnet) and 2) the sendAsset action, which generalizes several other actions into a single format that supports perp DEXs and spot DEX, sub-accounts, and normal users.

Last week, Hyperliquid was the first major venue to offer PUMP prelaunch trading. It became the main platform for price discovery leading up to PUMP’s highly anticipated TGE, with over $400M in open interest and $600M in 24h volume as a prelaunch perp. Following TGE, Hyperliquid was also the first major venue to offer spot trading of PUMP through Unit. It remains one of the most liquid venues to trade PUMP spot. Hyperliquid continues to support the movement of capital formation and price discovery onchain. This trend is reflected in four consecutive days of open interest all-time highs. Today’s OI reached $12.1B.

Based on extensive user and builder feedback, the staking referral program is being re-evaluated to ensure fairness for all builders and a healthy builder ecosystem. In its current formulation, there is a risk that some builders sharing back fees to users will create pressure for other builders to do the same to remain competitive. This would be a dangerous precedent that sets an effective requirement of staking in order to compete as an application. Permissionless systems must be designed thoughtfully as there is no central authority to prevent extractive behavior. Thank you to all users that have raised these concerns. At this time, there is no definitive implementation ready for mainnet. Additional feedback is appreciated around designing a robust solution.

PUMP spot deposits, withdrawals, and trading are now live on Hyperliquid through Unit Protocol. Deposit PUMP on http://app.hyperliquid.xyz or http://app.hyperunit.xyz Trade spot PUMP at https://app.hyperliquid.xyz/trade/PUMP/USDC

The PUMP hyperp has converted to a regular perp. You can now long or short $PUMP with up to 5x leverage. Listing is not an endorsement of the project. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Do not trade assets you are unfamiliar with and do not understand the risks for. Exercise control. NFA. https://app.hyperliquid.xyz/trade/PUMP

Hyperliquid hit a new OI ATH two days in a row. This time of >$11.3B.

Hyperliquid reached a new all-time high of >$10.6B in open interest.

By community request, Hyperliquid has listed PUMP-USD hyperps. You can now long or short the unlaunched $PUMP token with up to 3x leverage. As a reminder, 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. Trading is on low leverage and isolated margin only. Beware of low liquidity, high volatility, potentially extreme funding, and increased liquidation risk. Note: $PUMP-USD will convert to a vanilla perp upon CEX spot listing. See Docs for more. $PUMP-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. NFA. https://app.hyperliquid.xyz/trade/PUMP

Biweekly update Product & Tech + The CoreWriter contract is live on mainnet.
