Programmable Trading - HyperEVM & CoreWriter

Build smart contracts that trade like pros.

Use Hyperliquid’s CoreWriter and precompiles to create DeFi apps that directly read HyperCore’s orderbook and place trades in real time. - What to Build: - Autonomous trading strategies (e.g. vaults, bots) - Smart contract-based risk hedging tools - DApps that combine Hyperliquid with other protocols - Toolkits or no-code interfaces for programmable trading - Why it’s Unique: - Only on Hyperliquid can smart contracts tap directly into a live, high-performance orderbook. - Enable fully on-chain trading logic — no wrappers, no compromise.

HIP-3 — Builder-Deployed Perpetual Markets

Permissionless perps are here.

Leverage HIP-3 to launch new perpetual markets, create deployment tools, or experiment with alternative derivative structures. - What to Build: - Perps for real-world assets (commodities, indices) - DAO-governed perp markets - Tools for market deployment (UI, CLI) - Bots and MM strategies for low-liquidity perps - Why it’s Unique: - HIP-3 turns Hyperliquid into a true financial primitive layer. - Anyone can launch a market, earn fees, and define custom logic.

Builder Codes & Monetizable Integrations

Turn your dApp into a revenue engine.

Use Builder Codes to embed monetization into trading UIs, bots, and integrations — and earn fees every time someone trades. - What to Build: - Aggregators and bots that route trades to Hyperliquid - Copy trading and social trading platforms - Wallet or frontend integrations - SDKs and arbitrage toolkits - Why it’s Unique: - Builder Codes are on-chain incentives baked into the protocol. - Every trade routed through your app earns you fees — like affiliate links for DeFi.
