HyperCats
HyperCats is a community-driven NFT collection native to the Hyperliquid ecosystem, featuring unique cat-themed profile pictures that have become cultural touchstones for the Hyperliquid community. Launched on Hyperliquid's native spot market infrastructure using HIP-1 and HIP-2 token standards, HyperCats pioneered the native NFT experience on Hyperliquid before HyperEVM's full deployment. Holders of HyperCats NFTs gain access to exclusive community channels, early access to Hyperliquid ecosystem project launches, and governance participation in community initiatives. The project embodies the playful, community-first culture that has emerged around Hyperliquid, where meme tokens and collectibles coexist with serious DeFi infrastructure. HyperCats has become a symbol of Hyperliquid's vibrant grassroots community and serves as a gateway NFT for newcomers entering the ecosystem, representing the cultural identity of the Hyperliquid community beyond pure financial products.
Visit websiteSafe Wallet
Safe (formerly Gnosis Safe) is the industry-standard multi-signature smart account protocol, deployed on HyperEVM for DAOs, protocols, and teams that require shared treasury management and governance security. Safe smart accounts require M-of-N approval from designated signers before executing transactions, preventing single points of failure in protocol treasury management. For Hyperliquid ecosystem protocols managing significant TVL, Safe provides battle-tested smart account infrastructure with support for spending policies, transaction batching, and module-based extensibility. Safe's ecosystem includes integrations with hardware wallets, mobile apps, and governance tools—enabling comprehensive secure operations for on-chain teams. With over 00B in assets secured historically and an extensive security audit record, Safe is the default choice for any Hyperliquid project that handles collective funds or needs robust multi-party governance over protocol upgrades and treasury operations.
