Here’s some more information about this asset:
Hyperliquid (HYPE)
Hyperliquid (HYPE) is a performant Layer 1 blockchain built with the vision of a fully on-chain open financial system. The L1 uses a custom consensus algorithm called HyperBFT, optimized from the ground up to support high-frequency trading demands. HyperCore includes fully on-chain perpetual futures and spot order books where every order, cancel, trade, and liquidation happens transparently with sub-second finality.
The chain currently supports 200,000 orders per second. HyperEVM brings EVM compatibility to Hyperliquid, making the performant liquidity and financial primitives available as permissionless building blocks. HYPE is the native token used for securing the network through staking, participating in governance, and paying transaction fees.
Please note:
- Trading via Kraken App and Instant Buy will be available once the liquidity conditions are met (when a sufficient number of buyers and sellers have entered the market for their orders to be efficiently matched).
- Geographic restrictions may apply
Will Kraken make more assets available?
Yes! But our policy is to never reveal any details until shortly before launch – including which assets we are considering. All of Kraken’s available tokens can be found here, and all future tokens will be announced on our Listings Roadmap and social media profiles. Our client engagement specialists cannot answer any questions about which assets we may be making available in the future.
