HyperLaunch
HyperLaunch is a permissionless NFT and token launchpad native to the HyperEVM ecosystem, enabling projects to launch collections, conduct fair sales, and build communities directly on Hyperliquid's blockchain. HyperLaunch's launchpad framework supports multiple sale mechanisms including Dutch auctions, whitelist mints, and bonding curve launches—giving project teams flexibility in how they distribute tokens and NFTs to their communities. Integrated with Hyperliquid's native spot order books, HyperLaunch-launched NFTs and tokens can immediately begin trading on Hyperliquid's market infrastructure without needing additional DEX listings. The platform's built-in royalty enforcement and creator royalty splits ensure sustainable economics for HyperEVM creative projects. As Hyperliquid's NFT ecosystem matures, HyperLaunch serves as the primary infrastructure for bootstrapping new community projects and token launches within the Hyperliquid universe, lowering barriers for builders to access the ecosystem's growing user base.
Visit websiteMountain Protocol
Mountain Protocol is the issuer of USDM, a regulated, yield-bearing stablecoin backed by short-term US Treasury bills that automatically passes through Treasury yields to holders on a daily rebasing basis. Unlike traditional stablecoins that capture yield for issuers, USDM distributes approximately 4-5% APY directly to holders simply by holding the token—making it a compelling alternative to USDC and USDT in the HyperEVM ecosystem. As HyperEVM lending protocols and yield vaults integrate USDM as a base asset, Hyperliquid traders can earn real-world Treasury yields on their idle stablecoin balances between trades. Mountain Protocol operates under regulatory oversight and maintains full reserve attestations, providing institutional-grade compliance for DeFi protocols that need to satisfy regulatory requirements when deploying RWA-backed assets on Hyperliquid. USDM's daily rebasing model ensures yield accrues automatically without requiring any user action.
