Imagine DeFi apps with access to liquidity, near-instant finality, and integrated spot and perpetual order books within a unified ecosystem.
HyperEVM makes this possible on @HyperliquidX.
🧵
The full Hyperliquid report dives much deeper. Here's the full breakdown.
1/ Since the airdrop, Hyperliquid has grown from 6% to around 67% of the perp DEX market.
Cumulative inflows have hit a new ATH of $2.42B, highlighting Hyperliquid's impressive growth after the points farming era.
This demonstrates Hyperliquid's ability to retain and grow market share without future incentives.
2/ One goal of Hyperliquid is to expand to an EVM-compatible chain. As an extension of this, Hyperliquid has launched HyperEVM.
HyperEVM integrates Ethereum’s Virtual Machine directly into Hyperliquid’s high-performance L1, allowing apps to leverage native liquidity.
3/ HyperEVM’s dual-block architecture features frequent small blocks every 2 seconds for rapid transactions and larger blocks every minute for complex operations.
For users, this means fast confirmations for both simple and complex transactions.
4/ Powered by HyperBFT (HotStuff-based consensus), HyperEVM achieves instant transaction finality (~0.2 sec) which outperforms most EVM-compatible chains.
Unlike probabilistic finality models, HyperBFT ensures transactions are final as soon as validators reach consensus—eliminating reorg risks and improving UX.
5/ HyperEVM Adoption
• Approximately 30k accounts have been created to date
• Around 16k active users weekly
• Ranks 10th among EVM chains for fees generated over the past 7 days (Source: Nansen)
Growth has been modest so far due to the novelty of HyperEVM which could change as more functionality is added.
6/ Token Burns
The HyperEVM gas model burns transaction fees which creates deflationary pressure on HYPE.
This model strengthens tokenomics and aligns incentives across the ecosystem.
7/ HyperEVM ecosystem is growing with projects like:
@felixprotocol: Developing a mobile app to help onboard newcomers to HL and HyperEVM DeFi.
@hlnames: HL naming service similar to ENS
@hyperunit: Enables non-native asset issuance through a lock-and-mint bridging system.
@hypurrfi: Money market protocol on HyperEVM.
@HyperSwapX: AMM that has crossed $1M in TVL.
8/ Challenges
There are some challenges with HyperEVM worth noting.
• Success shifts from HL's core team to third-party devs which raises execution risk.
• Competition is strong which could make it difficult to attract high-caliber teams compared to Monad, MegaETH, Initia.
• Limited primitive apps remain beyond the existing perps & spot DEX.
