Hyperliquid’s vision is to create a fair new financial system for all. All users are important, no matter their volume or account value.

Real users receive fewer points when large-scale sybil farms try to game the system to receive more than their fair share. Investigation by different research teams identified that over 27,000 addresses operated by approximately 100 individuals attempted to receive disproportionately more points through large-scale and systematic inorganic behavior. These addresses’ points were multiplied by 2% or 20% based on the scale of sybil activity. Affected addresses include a line on the Points page saying, “Sybil behavior detected.” The end result is a larger fraction of points going to real users.

In addition, 8M points were distributed for activity in May and 8.4M points for activity in October and early November. In sum, the final number of points is 57.9M.

Biweekly update

Tech
+ As posted in API Announcements, API keys (both named and unnamed agents) will no longer work after their deadline. When a key expires, it is highly recommended to generate a new key, as the nonce tracking information for expired agents are eventually pruned from the L1 state. Note that legacy API keys created before deadlines were implemented will expire on Dec 14.
+ As a reminder, the validator set is permissionless on testnet. There is a self-delegation requirement of 10k HYPE to register a new validator and be eligible for the active set. The top N validators by total delegated stake form the active set. Currently N=50 on testnet.
+ Please continue to submit any findings for the testnet EVM bug bounty with a minimal reproducible example via ⁠Discord ticket. Thank you for your reports!
