Safe 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.
Visit websiteHyperliquid Names
Hyperliquid Names is an on-chain domain naming service for the Hyperliquid ecosystem, enabling users to register human-readable .hl domains that map to wallet addresses and on-chain identities. Similar to ENS on Ethereum, Hyperliquid Names solves a fundamental UX problem: cryptographic wallet addresses are long, error-prone hex strings that are nearly impossible to remember or share reliably. With a .hl domain, you can send assets to alice.hl instead of a 42-character address — dramatically improving usability and reducing the risk of costly transfer errors. Domains are registered on-chain, ensuring ownership is trustless and censorship-resistant — no central authority can revoke your name. Beyond simple address resolution, .hl domains can store metadata such as social profiles, website links, and avatar images, serving as a portable on-chain identity layer across Hyperliquid applications. As the ecosystem expands with wallets, DEXs, trading interfaces, and social apps, a unified naming layer becomes essential infrastructure for user experience. Early adopters can claim short premium names before they become scarce, and a secondary market for valuable .hl domains is already forming among ecosystem participants.

Key Differences
Layer Architecture
Safe Wallet operates on Multi-Layer (spans multiple hyperliquid layers), while Hyperliquid Names runs on HyperEVM (evm smart contracts on hyperliquid l1). This affects composability, transaction speed, and the types of integrations each protocol supports.
When to Use Each
Choose Safe Wallet if you...
- ✓Want a wallets & account abstraction solution on Multi-Layer
- ✓Need: Industry-standard multi-signature smart account protocol for DAO and protocol treasuries
Choose Hyperliquid Names if you...
- ✓Want a wallets & account abstraction solution on HyperEVM
- ✓Need features like domains and identity
- ✓Need: .hl domain names for the Hyperliquid ecosystem
Ecosystem Integration
Safe Wallet
Safe Wallet operates on Multi-Layer (spans multiple hyperliquid layers). Spanning multiple layers lets it combine the strengths of each, though integration complexity is higher.
Hyperliquid Names
Hyperliquid Names operates on HyperEVM (evm smart contracts on hyperliquid l1). As a HyperEVM protocol, it can compose with other EVM-based DeFi primitives and leverage smart contract flexibility.
