Staking referral program

Builder and referral codes on HyperCore will be upgraded with a staking referral program. Builders and referrers who stake HYPE will be able to keep a percentage of their referred users’ trading fees, up to a maximum of 40% for builders and referrers at the highest staking tier. All builders and referrers with staked HYPE will automatically enjoy these benefits once the feature is enabled on mainnet.

Furthermore, builders and referrers will be able to share up to 50% of the staking referral revenue back to the referred user. This allows referrers to offer better than the default rates to new users.

User feedback is greatly appreciated.

What are builder codes and referral codes?
Builder codes allow interfaces routing through Hyperliquid to charge a custom fee on a per-order basis. This additional fee is called a builder fee and goes 100% to the builder. The new staking referral program is strictly more revenue for builders.

Referral codes are applied when a user joins via a referral link. Unlike builder codes, referral codes are tied to users and apply regardless of how the user trades in perpetuity. Note that builder codes override referral codes for that order, and referral codes are disabled after the user trades $1B cumulative volume.

How it works
The staking referral program interacts with staking tier fee discounts and the VIP tier fee schedule. If a builder or referrer has a higher staking tier than their referred user on a trade, they keep up to 100% of the difference. The percentage kept by the builder or referrer decreases as the volume tier of the referred user increases, starting at 100% for VIP 0 and ending at 40% for VIP 6. See Docs for more: https://hyperliquid.gitbook.io/hyperliquid-docs/referrals/staking-referral-program.

As an example: Alice has 100k staked HYPE, which gives a trading fee discount of 30%. Bob has 100 staked HYPE, which gives a trading fee discount of 10%, and Bob is at VIP 1. If Bob uses Alice’s builder or referral code, Alice can keep (30% - 10%) * 90% = 18% of the fees that Bob pays. Alice could share with Bob up to 9% of his fees. In other words, Bob could receive up to a 9% trading fee discount using Alice’s builder or referral code.

Rollout
The staking referral program will be enabled in the coming days on testnet. The mainnet release will follow based on user feedback and stress testing. Note that the rollout on both testnet and mainnet will be incremental. In particular, the option to share up to 50% of staking referral revenue back to the referred users will come in a subsequent upgrade.

Margin tiers will go live on mainnet around ~06:00 UTC on May 22.

As described previously in the API announcements channel, margin tiers define the max leverage allowed as a function of notional position. Initially, margin tiers will be activated for DOGE, ARB, and OP perps on mainnet. For more information, see the Docs: https://hyperliquid.gitbook.io/hyperliquid-docs/trading/margin-tiers

User feedback is greatly appreciated. As a reminder, the onchain implementation of margin tiers on testnet receives mainnet level bug bounty payouts according to https://hyperliquid.gitbook.io/hyperliquid-docs/bug-bounty-program. Note that while UI feedback is appreciated, it is not within scope of the Bug Bounty program.

Rabby Wallet and DeBank have integrated the HyperEVM.

The following post is from Hyperliquid Labs.

Hyperliquid Labs is committed to the advancement of defi and its promise in delivering a more open, transparent, and efficient financial system for all. As a contributor to the Hyperliquid blockchain, we believe in defi’s ability not only to meet but to exceed the demands of modern financial markets.

In this spirit, Hyperliquid Labs submitted two comment letters to the United States’ Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) in response to its recent Requests for Comment on perpetual derivatives and 24/7 trading. We commend the CFTC for its proactive engagement on these topics, understanding of which is fundamental to the evolution of global markets. We believe that Hyperliquid exemplifies how core defi principles can be put into practice to enhance market efficiency, market integrity, and user protection.

Supporting defi in the U.S. with open dialogue and a clear regulatory framework is an opportunity to ensure the U.S. remains a leader in financial innovation while robustly protecting users. Hyperliquid Labs, alongside the broader Hyperliquid community, is committed to being a constructive partner in this journey. We thank the CFTC for its leadership in exploring these critical market innovations and for the opportunity to contribute our perspective.

The HyperFND X account has been secured. The Hyperliquid blockchain and all other social media channels were unaffected and remain secure.

A thorough investigation is being conducted with the assistance of X's security team. Security best practices were and continue to be in place for the account. There was no compromise of internal systems, email, or associated credentials. Hardware 2FA was untouched. Sincere thanks to X’s team for their swift action and support.

As a warning not just for users of Hyperliquid, but any project, if an announcement looks suspicious, do not interact. First verify it against other social media channels, e.g., Discord, Telegram. Legitimate posts will never require urgency. Remember to stay vigilant.

Welcome to all new members of the ecosystem.

On the next network upgrade, the HyperEVM small block duration will be decreased from 2 seconds to 1 second, which will increase HyperEVM throughput. Note that optimizing throughput to scale and meet user demand is consistently a top technical priority. Further optimizations will be released incrementally. This change is already live on testnet, and feedback is appreciated as always.
