How Hyperliquid becameimpossible to ignore
2024
A chain, and a community that owns it
HyperEVM and the HYPE token arrive through one of the largest community-first distributions in crypto. The people who used it became the people who own it.
2025
Dominance, and a value engine
Hyperliquid becomes the leading perp DEX while its buyback mechanism compounds protocol revenue back into HYPE, the clearest example of value accrual the industry has produced.
2026
Wall Street takes notice
HYPE-focused digital asset treasury companies begin trading on Nasdaq and institutional capital starts paying attention, bringing TradFi-grade scrutiny to an onchain protocol.
Why HRC
Hyperliquid has rapidly evolved from a Perp DEX
into the most successful protocol in crypto.
Digital asset treasuries (DATs) now trade on Nasdaq.
A distinctive buyback mechanism is reshaping tokenomics.
Institutional attention is growing worldwide.
Yet the ecosystem still lacks
the TradFi-style coverage serious investors expect.
The Hyperliquid Research Collective was built to meet that demand.
We give investors worldwide a clear, transparent view
of Hyperliquid's financial performance.

Perpetual Contracts Belong at the Center of the CFTC's Innovation Agenda
HPC submitted a statement to the CFTC's Innovation Advisory Committee today: perpetual contracts are central to the innovation agenda, serve real-world hedging needs, and are already onshoring under the Commission's 2026 policy moves. $500B+ in notional volume on Hyperliquid alone says the demand is already here.

The Great Perpification
Every few cycles, a crypto-native idea slips its leash and rewires a slice of the real world. Digital gold did it. Stablecoins did it. Monk and Ryan Watkins are betting perpetual derivatives are next, and that decentralized exchanges like Hyperliquid are the ones built to carry them there. Retail traders drowning in options theta decay and opaque CFD spreads don't need a fancier derivative, they need a simpler one: no expiries, no strikes, just leverage that does exactly what it says on the tin. The math is the hook: even a sliver of the $8 trillion sloshing through daily options, futures, and CFD volume flipping onchain is worth hundreds of billions in market cap. They've got a name for it already: the great perpification.

HYPE Regulatory Overhang Is Gone: Onwards and Upwards
Yesterday Trump named Hyperliquid directly from the White House: Selig at the CFTC is working to bring it into the US, fully compliant and legal. That single sentence removes the biggest overhang standing between HYPE and its full thesis playing out: access to the largest capital market on earth. The fundamentals were already strong.
