Drip Trade
Drip Trade is the first and leading native NFT marketplace on Hyperliquid, built entirely on-chain and non-custodial from day one. Unlike bridged or wrapped NFT solutions, Drip Trade is purpose-built for Hyperliquid infrastructure, delivering fast, low-cost NFT trading without relying on third-party custodians or off-chain order books. Users can list, buy, and sell NFTs directly from their wallets with full asset sovereignty throughout — no deposits, no intermediaries. The platform fills a critical gap in the Hyperliquid ecosystem by providing a dedicated NFT trading venue that matches the speed and efficiency the chain is known for. Key features include on-chain order matching, collection browsing, rarity and trait filtering, and a streamlined trading interface suited to both newcomers and power users. As the Hyperliquid NFT ecosystem grows and more collections launch on HyperEVM, Drip Trade is positioned as the primary destination for NFT discovery and liquidity. Its native integration ensures traders benefit from near-instant finality and low fees — the same standards that define the broader Hyperliquid experience — making it the natural home for digital collectibles on the network.
Visit websitePurrswap
Purrswap is a native DEX on HyperEVM, incubated by Abracadabra DAO and built on a licensed implementation of MIMswap's Proactive Market Maker (PMM) algorithm. Unlike traditional constant-product AMMs, PMM actively adjusts its price curve based on external reference prices, concentrating liquidity near the current market price and dramatically reducing slippage for both stablecoin and volatile-asset trading pairs. Purrswap inherits Abracadabra DAO's deep DeFi expertise — the team behind the MIM stablecoin and the original MIMswap protocol on Ethereum — bringing battle-tested, audited smart contract architecture to the Hyperliquid ecosystem. By deploying natively on HyperEVM, Purrswap benefits from Hyperliquid's high-throughput EVM execution environment, low transaction fees, and tight integration with the broader Hyperliquid DeFi stack including HyperCore's perpetual order book. The PMM model makes Purrswap particularly capital-efficient for stablecoin swaps and correlated-asset pairs where tight spreads and minimal impermanent loss are critical for LPs. As a community-aligned project incubated by one of DeFi's most recognized DAOs, Purrswap represents a meaningful bridge between the established Abracadabra ecosystem and Hyperliquid's rapidly growing on-chain economy.
