Overview

Hyperliquid Spot logo

Hyperliquid Spot

Hyperliquid's native spot order book is the on-chain spot trading layer of the Hyperliquid L1, enabling permissionless listing and trading of tokens through the HIP-1 and HIP-2 token standards. Unlike AMM-based spot trading, Hyperliquid Spot uses a fully on-chain central limit order book (CLOB) with 200k orders per second throughput, delivering CEX-equivalent matching engine performance for spot assets. HIP-1 provides the fungible token standard analogous to ERC-20, while HIP-2 governs hyperliquidity provision—requiring token deployers to seed initial order book liquidity. Tokens launched through this mechanism trade natively on Hyperliquid's CLOB alongside the perp markets, creating a unified liquidity environment. The native spot DEX has become the go-to venue for launching and trading Hyperliquid-native tokens like PURR, HYPE, and the growing list of HyperEVM-native project tokens, with billions in cumulative spot trading volume demonstrating strong adoption.

Stork Network

Stork is a low-latency, first-party oracle network purpose-built for high-performance DeFi applications like Hyperliquid. Unlike traditional oracle solutions, Stork delivers signed price updates directly to end-users, enabling on-demand data consumption without sacrificing freshness. Designed for derivatives and perpetuals markets where sub-millisecond price accuracy is critical, Stork has become a key infrastructure layer for HyperEVM protocols. Its publisher-agnostic design allows projects to integrate multiple data sources under a unified interface, and its architecture supports hundreds of asset feeds with cryptographic attestation. Stork's emphasis on ultra-low latency makes it ideal for Hyperliquid's high-throughput matching engine, where stale oracle prices can create exploitable arbitrage or unfair liquidations. Projects building options, structured products, or complex derivatives on HyperEVM rely on Stork for the price freshness that underpins safe, capital-efficient protocols.

Ecosystem Integration

Hyperliquid Spot logo

Hyperliquid Spot

Hyperliquid Spot operates on Multi-Layer (spans multiple hyperliquid layers). Spanning multiple layers lets it combine the strengths of each, though integration complexity is higher.

Stork Network logo

Stork Network

Stork Network operates on Multi-Layer (spans multiple hyperliquid layers). Spanning multiple layers lets it combine the strengths of each, though integration complexity is higher.

Both protocols share the same layer, maximizing composability potential.
