Overview

Pyth Network

Pyth Network is a high-fidelity, low-latency oracle that delivers real-world market data to smart contracts on over 50 blockchains including Hyperliquid. Hyperliquid integrates Pyth's price feeds to power its perpetual and spot markets, ensuring reliable mark prices and funding rates. Pyth uses a pull-model where publishers—including major trading firms like Jump Trading and Jane Street—push prices on-chain only when consumed, dramatically reducing costs. With sub-second update frequencies and over 500 price feeds covering crypto, equities, FX, and commodities, Pyth is one of the most widely used oracles across the HyperEVM ecosystem. Its decentralized network of first-party data sources ensures data accuracy and tamper-resistance, making it a critical infrastructure layer for DeFi protocols building on Hyperliquid that require accurate, real-time pricing for collateral valuation, liquidation triggers, and perpetual mark prices.

go-hyperliquid

go-hyperliquid is a community-developed Golang SDK for the Hyperliquid API, providing idiomatic Go bindings for trading, market data, and account management on Hyperliquid. Built with Go's concurrency model in mind, the SDK leverages goroutines and channels for efficient WebSocket streaming and concurrent order management—making it well-suited for high-throughput trading systems written in Go. The library covers the full Hyperliquid API including REST endpoints for order placement, account queries, and historical data, as well as WebSocket subscriptions for real-time order book updates and trade feeds. With typed request and response structures, comprehensive error handling, and context-aware API calls, go-hyperliquid provides the idiomatic Go developer experience that the Hyperliquid ecosystem previously lacked, enabling the large Go trading infrastructure community to build on Hyperliquid. The SDK has active contributors and is maintained alongside the official Python and Rust SDKs.

Ecosystem Integration

Pyth Network logo

Pyth Network

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

go-hyperliquid

go-hyperliquid 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.
