Overview
Tenderly
Tenderly is the all-in-one smart contract development platform providing debugging, monitoring, simulation, and alerting tools for EVM developers building on HyperEVM and other networks. Its Visual Debugger decodes failed and reverted transactions into human-readable stack traces, making it dramatically faster to diagnose smart contract bugs compared to raw EVM opcodes. Tenderly's Simulation API lets developers test transaction outcomes against the current HyperEVM state without spending gas, enabling safer protocol upgrades and parameter changes. Continuous monitoring with configurable alerts notifies teams when specific on-chain conditions occur—such as large withdrawals, abnormal gas usage, or function calls from specific addresses. For Hyperliquid ecosystem teams shipping production DeFi protocols, Tenderly's toolchain shortens the development cycle and reduces the risk of costly on-chain mistakes, making it an essential part of any serious HyperEVM smart contract team's development workflow.
Visit websiteTrade.xyz (HyperUnit)
Trade.xyz, developed by HyperUnit, made history as the first protocol to acquire a HIP-3 ticker on Hyperliquid, securing the XYZ100 listing. The platform enables 24/7 trading of tokenized US stocks and ETFs — assets that traditional markets restrict to weekday trading hours. By bringing equities like Apple, Tesla, NVIDIA, and major ETFs on-chain, Trade.xyz solves a fundamental problem: global investors, particularly those outside the US, face geographic restrictions and time-zone barriers when accessing US stock markets. On Hyperliquid's high-throughput order book, tokenized equities benefit from near-instant settlement, deep liquidity, and the same seamless trading experience as crypto perpetuals. The XYZ100 ticker functions as an index exposure product, giving users diversified equity exposure in a single position. Tokenization is handled in a trust-minimized manner, ensuring price fidelity with underlying assets. Trade.xyz represents the convergence of TradFi and DeFi — crypto-native infrastructure meeting traditional asset classes — and is a flagship demonstration of what Hyperliquid's HIP-3 standard enables for real-world asset trading at any hour of the day, seven days a week.
