A Hyperliquid mobile app is live on the Google Play Store as an initial MVP for testing. Android users can access the app here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=xyz.hyperliquid.app

The initial MVP is intentionally limited in scope, only including notifications for fills. It is meant to be an incremental upgrade from the PWA to iterate on early feedback re: feature prioritization and device-specific issues. During this testing period, there will be a limited number of downloads. Feedback is greatly appreciated.

Note that this is an initial MVP. If you wish to disable notifications, you can uncheck "Enable Push Notifications" in the Settings dropdown. Additional work is planned to improve notification configuration.

Important: Do not interact with fake apps in the Play Store and only use the link above.

On the next network upgrade, accounts with more than $10k in trading account value will be able to activate portfolio margin without any volume requirement. This allows new users to begin trading using portfolio margin immediately.

Accounts with $5M in master account weighted volume will still be able to activate portfolio margin. This has not changed.

Based on stalequant's methodology (https://stalequant.com/delisting_reco/index.html) and community request, max leverage was reduced to 5x for INJ, LDO, OP, SEI, and TIA. Note that max leverage decreases do not affect the liquidation price of open positions until they are modified. To reduce positions that exceed initial margin requirements under the new max leverage, use reduce-only orders. The first non-reduce-only order that modifies a position will subject it to the new max leverage and maintenance margin requirements. As a reminder, maintenance margin is half of the initial margin at max leverage. E.g., if max leverage is 10x, the maintenance margin is 5%.

Product & Tech
+ Reminder that DEX abstraction will be deprecated two network upgrades from now. See https://hyperliquid.gitbook.io/hyperliquid-docs/trading/account-abstraction-modes for details. Builders should take this opportunity to entirely discontinue DEX abstraction in their integration. Unified account is likely the best default for most users, as it merges spot and perps balances and supports cross margin for HIP-3. Automated traders should use Standard abstraction for the highest rate limits.

Validators will vote on whether to delist MAV, MAVIA, MEW, PROMPT, SCR, TST, USTC, YZY, ZEREBRO on May 5 around 9:00 UTC, based on stalequant's methodology and community request.

If validators vote to delist an asset, the perps will settle to the 1 hour time weighted spot oracle price before the scheduled delisting voting time, and open orders will be canceled. Close any positions beforehand to avoid automatic settlement. After settlement, no new orders will be accepted.

Outcome markets (HIP-4) are live on mainnet as a limited-feature initial release. As a reminder, outcomes are fully collateralized contracts that settle within a fixed range, useful for applications such as prediction markets and bounded options. They do not involve leverage or liquidations. The initial goal is to validate the technical implementation.

The first market is a recurring binary outcome that settles daily at 06:00 UTC to the BTC mark price on Hyperliquid. See Docs for more: https://hyperliquid.gitbook.io/hyperliquid-docs/trading/contract-specifications#recurring-outcomes. Additional features and markets will be rolled out in stages. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

Based on user feedback, portfolio margin limits have been increased. The maximum account value to activate portfolio margin has increased from $500k to $5M. Supply and borrow limits have also been increased according to global utilization. See docs for more: https://hyperliquid.gitbook.io/hyperliquid-docs/trading/portfolio-margin.

Outcome trading now supports multi-outcome markets (aka "questions"). Instead of independent binary markets, the different outcomes within a multi-outcome market are tied via "split" and "negate" operations for greater capital efficiency. "Split" and "merge" have also been implemented for binary markets.

The first multi-outcome market is a recurring BTC price range market that settles daily at 06:00 UTC to the BTC-USDC mark price on Hyperliquid. Relative to the initial reference price, these markets support asymmetric upside and downside, as well as an intermediate price range. See Docs for more: https://hyperliquid.gitbook.io/hyperliquid-docs/trading/contract-specifications#recurring-outcomes. Additional features and markets will continue to be rolled out in stages. Feedback is greatly appreciated.

Save the date: the Hyperliquid annual event will take place on October 5, 2026 in Singapore during the Token2049 week. Details will follow closer to the event.

Sharing the date in advance so builders and users in the ecosystem can plan travel.

The Hyperliquid protocol will implement Aligned Quote Asset v2 (AQAv2) on a future network upgrade. Based on user and deployer feedback, the AQAv2 spec will extend the designation of “aligned quote asset” to stablecoins that are not exclusive to Hyperliquid. Under AQAv2, stablecoin deployers share the vast majority of reserve yield revenue on their Hyperliquid supply with the protocol.

AQAv2 will be a requirement for quote assets to be listed against HIP-4 and validator-operated perp markets on a future network upgrade. There is no trading fee or volume contribution benefit to AQAv2. Other quote assets will continue to be supported for other markets, including spot and HIP-3 perps.

AQAv2 allows specification of a “technical deployer” and a “treasury deployer.” The treasury deployer will designate a treasury address which will share 100% of the AQA rate (the cost-adjusted onchain reference rate oracle) with the protocol through the onchain AQA mechanic. This is twice the rate of revenue share of the existing AQA spec. The treasury deployer must stake 500k HYPE, which is slashable if the treasury address does not have sufficient balance for onchain revenue to be deducted. The technical deployer must stake 500k HYPE and ensure reliable mint, redemption, and cross-chain transfer infrastructure for the aligned quote asset. Under AQAv2, the linked HyperEVM contract that connects to HyperCore will also rebalance with the treasury address. The HyperEVM balance corresponding to minted HyperCore tokens will be held in a ratio of 9:1 between treasury and technical deployer’s linked EVM contract addresses, respectively. More info will be added to the Docs.

Coinbase has announced its plan to activate AQAv2 on USDC as the treasury deployer, with Circle serving as the technical deployer responsible for CCTP and native cross-chain infrastructure. Both Coinbase and Circle have committed to stake HYPE to activate AQAv2. As part of this transition, Native Markets has agreed to terms granting Coinbase the right to purchase the USDH brand assets. With Coinbase, in its role as treasury deployer, sharing the vast majority of reserve yield revenue with the protocol, USDC will become the most aligned stablecoin on Hyperliquid. As a result, canonical outcome (HIP-4) markets will use USDC as the quote asset in a future network upgrade.

User and builder feedback has been consistent that fragmentation leads to degraded experience; now, the community no longer needs to choose between liquidity and protocol alignment.

The pioneering work of Native Markets in launching USDH as the first production-scale stablecoin sharing yield directly with a protocol in a purely onchain implementation made AQAv2 possible. The learnings and mechanics pioneered by USDH will live on in AQAv2.

The Hyper Foundation will give grants to eligible HIP-3 deployers, HIP-1 deployers, and builders who integrated USDH, supporting teams through migration over the next months. These grants reflect an ongoing commitment to teams who choose to build on Hyperliquid and align with the protocol. USDH markets are fully functional but will sunset over time. USDH remains fully backed, with feeless conversions to USDC and fiat available to users during this transition.

In approximately one month, the active validator set will increase from 24 to 27 validators. The validator set will remain permissionless, as it currently is.

Validators are encouraged to carefully understand the technology and familiarise themselves with testnet before proceeding with mainnet. Note that the self-delegation of 10k HYPE is locked by the protocol for one year. This lockup applies even if a validator is not part of the active set, and should be carefully considered before committing the stake.
