Overview

Hyperliquid is a high-performance on-chain order book available through Bankr. It's the primary platform for leveraged perpetual futures (crypto, stocks, commodities) and spot trading.

Getting Started

You need USDC on Hyperliquid to trade. Bridge funds by asking Bankr: "bridge $100 USDC to Hyperliquid". Deposits auto-detect the best source chain from your balances.

Example Prompts

• "open a 5x long on ETH with $100 on Hyperliquid"

• "set a stop loss at $3000 on my ETH position"

• "close my BTC position on Hyperliquid"

• "show my Hyperliquid positions"

• "bridge $50 USDC to Hyperliquid"

• "withdraw $50 USDC from Hyperliquid to Arbitrum"

Important Notes

Hyperliquid is its own L1 — it's not an EVM chain. Funds must be bridged in and out. The native unit of account is USDC. Gas works differently from EVM chains and is handled by the protocol.

Avantis vs Hyperliquid

Both offer leveraged trading. Hyperliquid is the primary platform with deeper liquidity and more pairs. Avantis (on Base) is a secondary option focused on commodities, forex, and crypto with EVM-native gas sponsorship. Not all Avantis pairs trade 24/7 (commodities and forex follow market hours).
