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 websiteVolmex
Volmex Finance is the leading protocol for crypto volatility products, offering on-chain implied volatility indices and derivatives. Their flagship products — BVIV (Bitcoin Implied Volatility Index) and EVIV (Ethereum Implied Volatility Index) — give traders a standardized way to hedge or speculate on market volatility, similar to how TradFi investors use the VIX. Volmex integrated with Hyperliquid via HIP-3, bringing perpetual volatility trading directly to the platform's high-performance order book. This allows Hyperliquid users to take long or short positions on crypto volatility without leaving the ecosystem. BVIV and EVIV are derived from options market data across major venues, providing transparent and manipulation-resistant benchmarks. For portfolio managers, volatility products serve as powerful hedging tools — when markets crash, volatility spikes, making BVIV/EVIV longs an effective hedge against spot or perp losses. Volmex's integration represents a significant step in bringing sophisticated TradFi-grade instruments to DeFi, deepening Hyperliquid's product suite beyond directional perpetuals and giving traders a complete toolkit to express volatility views and manage risk across all market conditions.
