Overview

Gauntlet

Gauntlet is a financial risk management and protocol optimization platform that uses agent-based market simulations to stress-test DeFi protocols and optimize their economic parameters. As protocols in the Hyperliquid ecosystem scale their TVL in lending markets and liquidity vaults, Gauntlet's simulation engine models adversarial behaviors, market crashes, and oracle manipulation scenarios to identify parameter configurations that maximize capital efficiency while minimizing insolvency risk. Gauntlet provides ongoing risk management services—continuously updating protocol parameters like liquidation bonuses, borrow caps, and collateral ratios in response to changing market conditions. With a track record managing billions in risk across Aave, Compound, and other top DeFi protocols, Gauntlet brings institutional-grade risk science to the growing Hyperliquid DeFi ecosystem. Protocols that engage Gauntlet signal commitment to sustainable, risk-managed growth rather than aggressive TVL maximization at the expense of security.

Hyperscanner

Hyperscanner is a unified analytics and data platform spanning both Hyperliquid L1 — the high-performance perpetuals exchange — and HyperEVM, the EVM-compatible smart contract execution layer. It addresses the fragmentation inherent in Hyperliquid's dual-chain architecture: traders and developers previously needed to consult disconnected explorers and dashboards to get a complete picture of ecosystem activity. Hyperscanner aggregates on-chain data into clean, accessible interfaces featuring real-time market overviews, token analytics, wallet tracking, volume trends, and trading signals derived from live chain activity. For traders, it offers a bird's-eye view of market conditions — open interest shifts, volume anomalies, and emerging token activity on HyperEVM. For developers and researchers, it provides an exploration and indexing layer for understanding ecosystem growth, protocol adoption, and on-chain behavior. By bridging the data gap between Hyperliquid L1 and HyperEVM in a single coherent product, Hyperscanner makes the ecosystem more legible and navigable — lowering the barrier for new participants and giving experienced users the signals they need to stay ahead of market developments.
