Trade perpetuals — on-chain speed, institutional liquidity
Hyperliquid brings professional-grade perpetual futures to decentralized finance. Our architecture combines native on-chain settlement with off-chain matching and deep liquidity routing, giving traders minimal slippage, tight spreads, and predictable funding costs. Built for power users, market makers, and liquidity providers.
How Hyperliquid works
Hyperliquid uses a hybrid model: an off-chain orderbook and matching engine for ultra-low-latency execution plus on-chain settlement and collateral management. Trades route to the best liquidity sources and are settled into your chosen wallet. Risk parameters and margin are visible and auditable on-chain, while advanced order types (limit, stop, TWAP) offer precise trade control.
- Fully non-custodial margin — keep custody of assets in your wallet.
- Cross-margining across supported perpetuals to reduce capital usage.
- Automated liquidation protections and insurance fund to protect traders.
