Hyperliquid

Hyperliquid is an on-chain perpetuals DEX. Equity exposure comes via on-chain equity perps built on its HIP-3 framework — e.g. builder trade.xyz lists 24/7 perps on Tesla, Apple, Nvidia and Amazon plus a Nasdaq index. Leveraged derivatives, no ownership.

PerpA perpetual future tracking the stock's price. A derivative with no expiry, funding fees and leverage — not ownership.Live

What you actually own on Hyperliquid

No equity at all — Hyperliquid is an on-chain perpetuals DEX. Stock exposure comes from equity perps built on its HIP-3 framework: for example the builder trade.xyz lists 24/7 perpetual contracts on Tesla, Apple, Nvidia and Amazon, plus a Nasdaq index. These are leveraged derivatives that track price, with no share, no dividend and no ownership.

Everything settles on-chain and trades around the clock. As with any perp, you post margin, pay or receive funding, and face liquidation if the position moves against you.
