As part of mainnet pre-alpha portfolio margin, USDH has been added as borrowable, and UBTC has been added as collateral.

To recap, the initial limits for pre-alpha are:
+ Master account >$5M in weighted volume required before enabling portfolio margin
+ USDH: 5M USDH global supply cap, 1M USDH global borrow cap, 50k USDH user supply cap, 1k USDH user borrow cap
+ USDC: 5M USDC global supply cap, 1M USDC global borrow cap, 5k USDC user supply cap, 1k USDC user borrow cap
+ HYPE: 200k HYPE global supply cap, 200 HYPE user supply cap
+ BTC: 100 BTC global supply cap, 0.1 BTC user supply cap

The pre-alpha phase is for feedback and should ideally be tested on a small sub-account with <$1k in value. Bug reports are eligible for generous mainnet bug bounties. Feedback is also greatly appreciated.

By community request, you can now long or short $AXS with up to 5x leverage.

“Unified account” mode is live on mainnet for pre-alpha testing. Unified account is an improved account setting in which spot and perps balances of all quote assets are merged. Unified account mode has been a much requested feature in its own right, and is also a prerequisite for supporting cross margin for HIP-3 DEXs and completing the portfolio margin implementation.

Under unified account mode, a notable change is that USDC spot balances will no longer be separate from USDC perp balances. All USDC deposits from any source will immediately count towards margin requirements and protect against liquidations. The same will be true for all collateral assets as cross margin is enabled on HIP-3 DEXs.

Ultimately unified account will be a reasonable default setting for most interfaces, but is suggested to be tested with small accounts during pre-alpha. On app.hyperliquid.xyz, users can try unified account mode in the settings menu. To return to legacy mode, all positions must be closed and open orders must be canceled.

Unified account and portfolio margin will be rate limited on the L1. After 50k daily user actions (e.g., placing an order or sending an asset) with portfolio margin or unified account active, users will only be able to close positions until the account disables portfolio margin and unified account. Market makers and high volume automated users should manually manage individual DEX balances instead.

HyperCore will support outcome trading (HIP-4). Outcomes are fully collateralized contracts that settle within a fixed range. They are a general-purpose primitive that are useful for applications such as prediction markets and bounded options-like instruments. There has been extensive user demand in both of these areas, and builders will likely think of novel applications as well.

Outcomes bring non-linearity, dated contracts, and an alternative form of derivative trading that does not involve leverage or liquidations. The outcome primitive expands the expressivity of HyperCore, while composing with other primitives such as portfolio margin and the HyperEVM.

Outcomes are a work in progress and currently only being tested on testnet. Canonical markets based on objective settlement sources will be deployed once technical development is complete. Canonical markets will be denominated in USDH. Pending user feedback, the infrastructure will be extended to permissionless deployment.

In the next few days, app.hyperliquid.xyz will default new users to unified account mode. There is no breaking change for existing users, but the change will apply to new sub-accounts created by existing users. As a reminder, spot and perps balances are merged under unified account. This is generally a much requested UX improvement, but a phased rollout is to adequately inform users who may be implicitly relying on separate USDC spot and perps balances.

Cross margin for HIP-3

For users:
Cross margin has been enabled for HIP-3 DEXs on testnet. This is not enabled on mainnet yet, but is eligible for mainnet-level bug bounties as described here: https://hyperliquid.gitbook.io/hyperliquid-docs/bug-bounty-program. HIP-3 deployers must enable cross margin for a given asset before users can use cross margin to trade it.

With unified account, all cross margined perps with the same collateral asset share margin, even across multiple DEXs. However, the assets across different DEXs will be protected up to their maintenance margin to avoid ADLs caused by large price moves on other DEXs. This novel “protected cross margin” system protects system solvency without sacrificing user experience.

Cross margin is not intended for use with DEX abstraction, and interfaces should not allow these users to trade using cross margin. Users should use unified account or portfolio margin for the expected behavior of cross margin on HIP-3 assets.

For HIP-3 deployers:
Despite the system-level protection, users still take greater risk when using cross margin across DEXs with different deployers. To better protect users, mainnet validators will enforce that HIP-3 deployers only enable cross margin on assets that satisfy defined eligibility standards, including: sufficient observable liquidity, a reliable external oracle source, and resilience to price manipulation. In particular, each time the externalPerpPx of an asset moves more than 50% relative to the start of day price, validators will conduct a review to determine whether the deployer should be slashed due to manipulation. Assets where 50% daily moves are expected more than once a month are ineligible for cross margin and are subject to deployer slashing.

For reference, cross, isolated, and isolated-only are margin modes: https://hyperliquid.gitbook.io/hyperliquid-docs/trading/margining#margin-mode, whereas portfolio margin, unified account, standard, and DEX abstraction are account abstraction modes: https://hyperliquid.gitbook.io/hyperliquid-docs/trading/account-abstraction-modes

Validators will vote on whether to delist OM around 8:00 UTC on 23 February. OM is being rebranded to MANTRA.

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

Cross margin for HIP-3 will be enabled on the next network upgrade. As a reminder, HIP-3 cross margin is only compatible with unified account and portfolio margin.

Deployers are recommended to enable cross margin for 1-2 lower volume assets that meet the cross margin requirements outlined in the Docs: https://hyperliquid.gitbook.io/hyperliquid-docs/hyperliquid-improvement-proposals-hips/hip-3-builder-deployed-perpetuals. This will provide users and interfaces an opportunity to test the new user flow without disruption to the majority of volume. Interfaces should not support trading cross margin for DEX abstraction users, and instead prompt users to either use isolated margin or enable unified account.

As a reminder, market makers and high volume traders should use standard account abstraction. In particular, cross margin is not compatible with DEX abstraction. Cross margin on standard accounts only shares collateral between positions within the same DEX.
