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.

Ventuals is a pioneering on-chain derivatives protocol built natively on Hyperliquid's HIP-3 infrastructure, focused on bringing private company valuations and pre-IPO markets to decentralized finance. By tokenizing equity-linked perpetual futures for private AI labs, tech platforms, and emerging hardware and automation companies, Ventuals creates a unified trading venue for assets previously inaccessible to on-chain participants. The protocol launched its vHYPE liquid staking vault in October 2025, attracting over $38 million in deposits within 30 minutes — a testament to demand for its novel market structure. Capital locked in the vHYPE vault funds collateral backing for Ventuals' HIP-3 perpetual markets, directly aligning staker incentives with protocol growth. Users can trade permissionless perps on pre-IPO company valuations, earn staking rewards on vHYPE deposits, and accumulate protocol points through trading volume and liquidity provision. Settlements leverage Hyperliquid's proven order book and clearing infrastructure, delivering the speed and transparency of a top-tier CEX with full on-chain settlement. Ventuals represents a new DeFi frontier: liquid, transparent derivatives on the private companies shaping the future of AI, hardware, and tech.
