Introducing Events by trade[XYZ]. With Events, we’re advancing our vision of Hyperliquid as the universal exchange—a single, composable system for trading financial assets and real-world outcomes. A user can deposit spot BTC, borrow USDC through portfolio margin, open a pre-ipo SpaceX perp position, hedge an upcoming SK Hynix earnings event with an events market, and pick the US Open winner—all from a single unified account on trade[XYZ]. Events will span sports, politics, economics, and financial markets, with an expanding range of categories and contract formats. Our initial Up/Down markets cover equities, commodities, and pre-IPOs, powered by the depth and liquidity of trade[XYZ] perpetuals on HIP-3. These perpetuals provide continuous price discovery and serve as the resolution source, so each contract is grounded in XYZ's liquid market prices rather than an external oracle.

We took a closer look at the data behind all 356,886 xyz traders since launch in October 2025. These markets are the primary funnel for mass adoption and user retention on Hyperliquid, across both retail and institutional cohorts. Full report below.

Our joint comment letter with @HyperliquidPC asks the @CFTC to open a regulated U.S. path for energy perpetuals and 24/7 trading. During this year’s oil shocks, our energy markets stayed open while benchmark markets were closed. They gave the world a live price as events unfolded. On many weekends, trade[XYZ] was the primary venue for price discovery. The events that shape our global economy rarely wait for markets to open. 24/7 markets are a natural evolution for a global economy in constant flux. The U.S. has an opportunity to lead by giving perpetuals a clear and credible regulatory home.

Capital markets thrive when price discovery is open and continuous. Hyperliquid was built for both. Our joint letter with @HyperliquidPC explains how pre-IPO perpetuals can complement the IPO process and support more informed capital formation.

The Pre-IPO Perpetual (IPOP) Market for UNITREE is now live. UNITREE is a pre-IPO market reflecting the market-implied expected price per A-share of Unitree Technology Co., Ltd., expected to list on the Shanghai STAR Market (code 688836). Unitree designs and manufactures quadruped and humanoid robots and robotic arms. After the IPO, the oracle will convert the CNY share price to USD at the prevailing offshore USD/CNH rate.

On July 27 at 23:01 UTC, SKHYNIX mark price dropped from $1,127.9 to $917.25. This print was based on an executed trade which was relayed by multiple independent data providers. The XYZ oracle was live in external pricing and tracking that venue, which serves as the primary Korean pre-market venue. The oracle system worked as intended according to its specification. While the system performed as designed, users are understandably upset about liquidations that were triggered. Market integrity is among Trade[XYZ]'s core values, and we understand the trust of our users has been, and will continue to be, earned. With these values in mind, we have decided to cover liquidation losses attributable to this anomaly. Eligibility requirements will be conveyed soon, and distributions are anticipated to be completed in the coming days. This is a one-time discretionary decision and is not a guarantee of similar future action. Going forward, our pricing systems will be further improved to handle tail events. We are accelerating our review of how prices are formed, including revisiting assumptions on external venues, and taking into consideration the price formation which occurs on our own orderbooks, which carry increasingly meaningful depth and signal in relation to external sources. We will share further information soon.
