Episode notes
Hyperliquid's Product-Led Explosive Rally
- Hyperliquid has outperformed major markets and broken above its 200-day moving average, rallying ~113% since late January.
- Brendan credits rapid product additions (metals, oil, S&P 24/7) and buybacks for driving volume and token strength.
S&P 24/7 Perpetuals Coming To Hyperliquid
- Hyperliquid secured a deal to power S&P Dow Jones indices perpetual contracts and offer 24/7 S&P trading via its platform.
- That creates weekend access to index exposure previously unavailable to retail, reducing the need to use crypto as weekend risk proxy.
Hyperliquid Became The Most Profitable Chain
- Hyperliquid generated more fees in 24 hours than Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin, and BNB combined, driven by open interest >$1.5B and 24/7 trading.
- The protocol added oil, gold, and silver trading which shifted volume composition away from crypto-only.
