🚨 In the last 24H, Hyperliquid generated more fees than every other chain combined.
$BNB came in second. Ethereum third.
That’s not speculation — that’s real usage.
Liquidity, traders, and protocols are actually active on $HYPE. ⚡
We don’t need more L1s that look like slower versions of Ethereum. We need L1s purpose-built for specific things.
HyperEVM is interesting because it extends a perps-first chain into a full DeFi ecosystem.
In TradFi, covered calls have been a trusted strategy for decades. Institutions monetize long positions, generate income, and smooth portfolio performance.
In DeFi, yield is often synthetic, complex, or short-lived. Hypersurface changes this by bringing covered calls on-chain in their purest form.
Transparent, simple, and powered by HyperEVM, we are bringing real yield to scale both treasuries and individual holders.
Hyperliquid
In case you're still wondering the difference ...
Hyperliquid:
- What it is: A decentralized exchange (DEX) purpose-built for perpetual futures trading.
- How it works: Runs an on-chain order book (not AMM-style) on its own custom high-performance L1 chain (not Ethereum).
- Why it matters: Unlike most DEXs, Hyperliquid combines centralized-exchange-like speed and UX with the transparency of being fully on-chain. It’s become one of the fastest-growing perps platforms.
- Native token: $HYPE (governs protocol, incentives, ecosystem).
HyperEVM:
- What it is: A recently launched EVM-compatible environment on top of the Hyperliquid chain.
- How it works: Extends Hyperliquid beyond perps trading, allowing smart contracts and DeFi apps to run natively on its infrastructure.
- Why it matters: It turns Hyperliquid from being “just a perps DEX” into a general-purpose DeFi ecosystem, where protocols can build structured products (like Hypersurface’s covered calls), lending, or other applications — all with the same high throughput and low fees that make the perps DEX successful.
- Native token: TBD
