A New Kind of Exchange: What Financial Advisors Need to Know About Hyperliquid
Hyperliquid has done in two years what took traditional exchanges decades: build a high-performance derivatives market with institutional-grade execution, transparency, and self-custody — all onchain. No venture backing. ~$3 trillion in trading volume and ~$800 million in revenue in 2025 alone.*
HYPE now ranks among the top ten crypto assets by market cap.** For U.S. investors who can't yet access the platform directly, exposure to HYPE is now available, including the Grayscale Hyperliquid Staking ETF (HYPG), the lowest gross management fee*** option in the U.S.
Join us as we cover:
- Hyperliquid as financial infrastructure: What Hyperliquid is and why its combination of institutional-grade execution with the transparency of decentralized finance sets it apart.
- What the HYPE is all about: How HYPE can accrue value from network activity and what drives its growth potential.
- Perpetual futures, explained: How "perps" work, how they differ from traditional futures, and why they are gaining traction in traditional finance.
- Regulatory developments: Where U.S. policy stands on onchain derivatives and decentralized markets, and what regulatory clarity could mean for institutional access to the Hyperliquid ecosystem.
- New exchange-traded products: A review of HYPG, Grayscale's product offering U.S. investors exposure to HYPE.
Grayscale Hyperliquid Staking ETF ("HYPG" or the "Fund"), an exchange traded product, is not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (or the ’40 Act) and therefore is not subject to the same regulations and protections as 1940 Act registered ETFs and mutual funds. Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. An investment in HYPG is subject to a high degree of risk and heightened volatility. HYPG is not suitable for an investor that cannot afford the loss of the entire investment. An investment in the Fund is not a direct investment in HYPE.

The Macro Case for Crypto

Staking 101
