Hyperliquid’s HIP‑3 Market Open Interest Hits $1.43 B

Hyperliquid’s permissionless HIP‑3 derivatives market has set a fresh record with open interest topping $1.43 billion, highlighting strong trader demand for decentralized perpetual futures. Notably, the WTI crude oil contract logged about $1.39 billion in 24‑hour volume, placing it behind only Bitcoin in activity and ahead of Ethereum. Recent trends show most of Hyperliquid’s top 30 active markets are tokenized real‑world assets, such as the S&P 500 Index, NVIDIA, and precious metals, while just seven are traditional crypto pairs, underscoring a shift toward broader asset exposure.
