It's inspiring to see tens of thousands of community members secure life-changing wealth as part of the Hyperliquid genesis event. Importantly, none of these people were insiders. They:
1) believed in the vision for a better financial system when no one else would
2) acted on that conviction by using and building upon the nascent technology, bootstrapping an unstoppable financial network
The Hyperliquid genesis pays homage to the original ethos of Bitcoin: ownership goes to the believers and doers, not rent-seeking insiders.
For all you early believers, thank you for the unwavering faith and support. Hyperliquid would be nowhere without you all. I'm grateful and honored to be building alongside you.

Looking back, we've come a long way. But looking ahead, there's so much further to go.
Finance is humanity's greatest invention. It is the only effective way to coordinate human effort across time and space. Yet, the legacy financial system contradicts its underlying goal of empowering individuals:
- it is opaque and centralized
- it is owned and operated by privileged insiders
- it doesn't embrace technological innovation to better serve users
Hyperliquid is the evolution of finance. And Hyperliquid has not succeeded until it houses all of finance. If you're reading this now, you're still early. The new financial system welcomes you with open arms.
its a proud moment for a degenerate left curved goose (me) to own 4 @WenLlama's.
i feel sillier buying these right now than i did buying all the memecoins i bought & ended up hitting 20-50x's on the past year. wonder wot mean?
i dunno man, these nfts have a fat treasury of $crv & i bullieve they'll be the face of DEFI like PUNKS were the face of ETH in 2020.
all ones who seek to control curve will seek a llama.
new protocols who seek to build treasuries in defi coins like crv & cvx will HAVE to buy a llama.
trust me, in 2028 youll see someone wif a llama PFP & think "much wow this guy must be a gigabrained chad who is at the forefront of decentralized finance, id like to know more about what hes talking about & doing in this realm of web3".. just like if you were here in 2020 & saw anyone with a PUNK pfp youd auto think this mfer must be an eth og & be so so rich.
they are a nice venn diagram of NFTs & DEFI, there is only 1111 - current treasury value is 777E (much wowwwwww syncronicity for me)
anyway, i think its a good thing how retarded i feel aping 6E into buying these 4 guys over the past month. when crv & cvx are in a MAX DEEPRESSION & once eth makes its rally to 4.8k level (which is soon) i bullieve defi will start to catch a bid again, why would it not? we are all here to make money in this realm, but we were all bought here by the tech & the narrative of overthrowing the goverments.... defi fixes this.
& crv is the bitcoin of defi.
thank you for reading my retarded tedX talk.
