Bankless Authors: Kazu & David C

Hyperliquid’s HyperEVM expansion is right around the corner, literally, and amid launch speculation, ecosystem excitement is catching fire.

Hyperliquid’s perpetuals DEX was launched back in 2022 and has quickly risen to become one of the go-to platforms for perps traders. The DEX is averaging a whopping $4.4B in volume per day and continues to hit new all-time highs there, with half of all onchain perpetual DEX trades taking place on the platform.

That's a wild amount of activity for a chain with a single live application... Enter Hyperliquid Hyperliquid bulls, who see the HyperEVM expansion allowing a multitude of apps to participate in a tremendous surge in onchain activity.  Said apps won’t be drawn just by the chain’s volume but also by its novel underlying tech.

Knowing all of this, let’s look at some of the projects that have announced their launch alongside the HyperEVM. 👇
