Bitcoin is down 40% while tokenised RWAs are up 486%.
Bitcoin is the liquidity benchmark in crypto. Tokenised RWAs signal institutional adoption and the direction of financial infrastructure.

Digital money is going multi-rail.
Stablecoins proved money can be programmable and interoperable on digital rails.
Tokenised deposits are banks’ take - regulated deposits, with on-chain settlement.
Here’s where stablecoins vs tokenised deposits diverge ⬇️
A new financial economy is quietly being established.
@BIS_org Project Agorá has advanced to real-value testing with tokenized central bank reserves and commercial deposits settling atomically on a unified ledger. Multi-currency, 24/7, instant finality.

The thesis that digital assets would eventually function as financial infrastructure is now producing measurable evidence rather than projection.
1️⃣ Asia leads global digital asset adoption and infrastructure buildout
Recent data shows Asia ranking as the leading region for digital asset adoption globally, driven by retail participation and increasing institutional alignment.

𝗛𝗜𝗣-𝟯: 𝗧𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗛𝘆𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗱 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗘𝘅𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲
HIP-3 transforms @HyperliquidX from a curated derivatives exchange into the infrastructure layer for global financial markets. Soon, anyone will be able to deploy perpetual markets for anything, from S&P 500 futures to memecoin perps, from prediction markets on football games to custom AI token indices.
All running 24/7 on the same performant engine that already processes billions in daily volume.
➀ 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗛𝗜𝗣-𝟯?
The Hyperliquid Improvement Proposals (HIP) number 3 will support builder-deployed Perpetuals (BDPs), and represents Hyperliquid's most ambitious milestone towards becoming the backbone of an internet-native, fully permissionless "Everything Exchange". This isn't just another DEX feature, it's the foundation for bringing the entire $1.8 trillion derivatives market onchain.
Currently live on testnet (and soon on mainnet), HIP-3 enables anyone to create perpetual markets on HyperCore's battle-tested CLOB infrastructure, the same tech that already handles more volume than most CEXs (with the exception of Binance, Bybit and OKX).
➁ 𝗚𝗮𝗺𝗲-𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀
The real revolution isn't just permissionless deployment, it's what becomes possible when deployers have full control over market parameters:
Traditional Finance Onchain:
- Equities & Indices: Trade Tesla, NVDA, or the entire S&P 500, 24/7. No market hours, no circuit breakers unless you want them
- Commodities: Oil, gold, wheat futures, all the physical world's value, tokenized and tradeable
- FX Markets: EUR/USD perpetuals that never close, capturing forex's $7.5T daily volume
- Custom Indices: Create your own "Top 10 AI Tokens Index" or "DeFi Blue Chips Basket" (impossible in TradFi)
Native Crypto Innovation:
- Exotic Derivatives: Leveraged tokens, volatility products, pair trades, if you can define an oracle, you can create a market
- Prediction Markets: Binary markets on elections, sports outcomes, protocol TVL milestones (Polymarket meets perps)
- Options-Like Structures: Through creative oracle and settlement design, builders can approximate options payoffs
➂ 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗠𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗰𝘀
HIP-3's flexibility is possible because deployers control everything: oracle specifications, leverage limits, funding mechanics, and settlement logic. The same infrastructure powering BTC perps can power a market on next week's Champions League match.
Dutch Auction System: One deployment slot opens every 31 hours, allocated via $HYPE-denominated Dutch auctions. This creates predictable cadence while preventing spam.
1M $HYPE Stake Requirement: Deployers must lock 1 million $HYPE (~$40M at current prices) as slashable collateral. That's not just a capital commitment, it's what ensures alignment. Validators can slash malicious operators through stake-weighted voting during the 7-day unstaking period.
Fee Economics:
- Builders capture up to 50% of trading fees from their markets
- Can add custom fee layers for liquidity programs or strategy funds
- Remaining fees flow to Hyperliquid protocol
- Creates powerful alignment where both builders and protocol win from volume
Infrastructure Access: Builders get the full HyperCore stack:
- World-class matching engine processing millions of orders/second
- Onchain orderbooks with sub-second latency
- Composable APIs for integrations
- But they must bootstrap their own liquidity, build their own UIs, attract their own traders
➃ 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗰 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀
The Binance Flip Thesis:
While CEXs extract value through opaque listing fees (often 10% of token supply), Hyperliquid creates transparent, permissionless markets. As the article by @blocmates (see link below) notes, if just SPX and NDX markets captured 0.1% of global volume, deployers would earn $425k daily, recovering their stake in 99 days.

Network Effects on Steroids:
- More markets → more traders → more volume → more fees
- Every new market strengthens $HYPE demand (for auctions, staking, gas)
- Unlike isolated DEXs, all markets benefit from shared infrastructure
- Hyperliquid's existing user base and volume give new markets instant distribution
The DAO Renaissance: The 1M $HYPE requirement naturally encourages collective deployment:
- Staking DAOs pooling resources to deploy markets
- Liquid staking protocols enabling broader participation
- Professional market makers partnering with communities
- Creating pseudo "onchain BlackRocks" managing market portfolios
➄ 𝗘𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆 𝗦𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝗹𝘀 & 𝗙𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲
Immediate Interest:
- Framework Ventures publicly planning market deployments
- Ethena's testnet deployment hints at USDe-denominated perps
- Multiple teams quietly accumulating $HYPE for deployment stakes
With fragmented markets across different deployers, expect:
- Meta-aggregators providing unified interfaces
- Cross-market liquidity optimization vaults
- Professional routing infrastructure
- The "Expedia of perps" consolidating the ecosystem
Risk Mitigation:
- Builder markets won't appear on official Hyperliquid frontend initially
- Users must actively seek out and understand risks
- Validator monitoring prevents manipulation
- Slashing mechanisms ensure deployer accountability
➅ 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗼𝘁𝘁𝗼𝗺 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗲
HIP-3 isn't just about more perps markets, it's about reimagining global finance on performant onchain rails. It transforms Hyperliquid from exchange to the premier, permissionless derivatives infrastructure layer of crypto, where market creation ultimately resembles a token deployment on Uniswap, just with much stronger value accrual back to the protocol and token.
When anyone can create a market for anything, with industrial-grade infrastructure and existing distribution, the TAM isn't just crypto derivatives. It's all derivatives. All markets. All financial products.
While Hyperliquid clearly dominates the Perp DEX industry already, HIP-3 will be another key catalyst that will drive adoption, volume and ultimately revenue on @Hyperliquid's platform.
