Hyperliquid is becoming one of cryptos biggest breakout stories. That attention increased after Grayscale published a report arguing the platform could grow into a major financial services company. Grayscale described Hyperliquid as a startup-style success story. The platform generated around $800 million in revenue in 2025 alone. It achieved that while competing in one of cryptos toughest markets: derivatives trading. Even though Hyperliquid is less than three years old and still blocks users in markets like the United States, it has already become one of the largest perpetual futures exchanges in crypto. At the center of its growth is decentralized perpetual futures trading, often called “perps.” These contracts let traders speculate on asset prices without expiration dates. Perpetual futures have become one of cryptos largest markets, averaging roughly $200 billion in daily trading volume across the industry in 2025. For years, centralized exchanges like Binance, Bybit, and OKX dominated the sector. However, Hyperliquid became the first decentralized platform to seriously challenge them.
