Overview
One balance of HYPE, more chains to play on
HyperLink is a launchpad for people who hold HYPE. You launch a coin, or trade one, with HYPE from your HyperEVM wallet, and that same coin is live on Ethereum and Robinhood Chain too: one address, one price, three markets.
You never fund a second wallet or buy ETH to launch. HyperLink pays to open your coin on the other two chains, and keeps the three prices together.
Why HyperLink
The trip out of the ecosystem costs too much
HYPE sits at the center of one of the most active trading communities in crypto. New tokens, though, launch on many chains. Reaching one of them today usually looks like this:
- Withdraw from HyperCore and bridge to another network.
- Swap part of it into the destination chain's gas token.
- Set up and secure a wallet you may only use once.
- Repeat the whole trip in reverse to bring profits home.
Every hop adds fees, waiting time and a new place to make a mistake. HyperLink collapses that trip into a single action priced in HYPE.
How it works
One coin, three markets
- Hold HYPE on HyperEVMAny EVM wallet works. HYPE on HyperCore spot moves to HyperEVM with one transfer in the Hyperliquid app.
- Launch or buyYou sign one small transaction on HyperEVM and pay in HYPE. Launches open on all three chains within seconds; buys fill in the coin's HYPE pool.
- One price everywhereEach chain has its own pool. When trading pushes them apart, HyperLink's Engine buys where the coin is cheap and sells where it is dear, so every pool holds the same price.
- Hold anywhereKeep the coin on HyperEVM, or have it delivered to your same address on Ethereum or Robinhood Chain. Sell on HyperEVM back into HYPE.
Launching a token
Fair launch, tradable from the first block
You set a name, ticker, image, description and links, plus an initial buy in HYPE. You sign one transaction on HyperEVM that holds your initial buy. HyperLink then launches the coin and makes your initial buy in the same transaction, so nobody can buy before you, and opens the same coin on Ethereum and Robinhood Chain.
Each pool starts with the chain's whole supply as one-sided liquidity at a $5,000 market cap. The price rises as people buy, like a curve, with no graduation step: it is a normal Uniswap v4 pool from the start, so wallets, aggregators and charts see it right away.
- Supply
- 1,000,000,000 per chain, minted once at launch.
- Opening market cap
- $5,000 on every chain, in that chain's native coin.
- Launch fee
- None. HyperLink pays the gas to open Ethereum and Robinhood Chain.
- Initial buy
- At least 0.5 HYPE. It is the first trade and goes to you. If a launch can't go through, your HYPE comes back.
- Trading fee
- 1% by default, set by the creator between 0.3% and 5%. 80% to the creator, 20% to HyperLink.
Trading
Every quote in HYPE
Buys and sells on HyperEVM fill directly in the coin's HYPE pool, from your own wallet. What you see in the quote is the pool price after the trading fee.
- Slippage limits are set on every trade. If the price moves past them, the trade doesn't execute.
- Deliver to Ethereum or Robinhood Chain. Pick where to receive and the coin is bridged to your same address there after the buy. The LayerZero fee is paid in HYPE; moving the coin between chains costs a 0.2% bridge fee.
- No second gas token for launching or trading on HyperEVM. You only need ETH if you want to trade the Ethereum or Robinhood Chain pools directly.
Supported chains
Where HYPE comes from, and where the coin lives
| Network | Role | Pool | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| HyperEVM | Home: launch and trade with HYPE | Coin / HYPE, Uniswap v4 | Planned |
| Ethereum | Same coin, same price | Coin / ETH, Uniswap v4 | Planned |
| Robinhood Chain | Same coin, same price | Coin / ETH, Uniswap v4 | Planned |
| HyperCore | Source of HYPE | Move to HyperEVM first | Planned |
The coin is a LayerZero OFT: one token at the same address on all three chains.
$HYPERLINK
The project token
$HYPERLINK is the HyperLink project token. Its supply, distribution and utility have not been finalized.
HyperLink's income today: 20% of every coin's trading fees, the 0.2% bridge fee, and the Engine's arbitrage profit. Directions under discussion for $HYPERLINK include a share of that income and a say in which chains HyperLink adds next. Full tokenomics will be published on this page before any token is issued. Until then, treat any $HYPERLINK offered elsewhere as unofficial.
Risks
Read this before you use it
- Liquidity control. Each coin's pools are held by the HyperLink factory, and the HyperLink owner can pull the liquidity of every coin on every chain, and empty the Engine, in one transaction. Treat this as owner risk on every coin.
- Relayer. On HyperEVM a launch waits for HyperLink's relayer to carry it out. If it doesn't, your initial buy is refunded; after 30 minutes you can take it back yourself.
- Cross-chain messages carry bridge risk. A failure can delay a transfer between chains.
- Smart contracts can contain bugs, including after audits.
- Newly launched tokens are extremely volatile, and many lose most of their value.
- Only use amounts you can afford to lose.
FAQ
Common questions
Do I need ETH for gas?
Not to launch or to trade on HyperEVM. HyperLink pays to open your coin on Ethereum and Robinhood Chain. You only need ETH to trade those pools directly.
Which wallets will work?
Any EVM wallet that holds HYPE on HyperEVM. HYPE on HyperCore spot needs one transfer to HyperEVM first.
Why is my coin on three chains?
So it trades where the buyers are. Each chain has its own pool, and HyperLink's Engine keeps them at one price.
Is HyperLink part of Hyperliquid?
No. HyperLink is an independent project built for the Hyperliquid ecosystem and its HYPE holders.
