Hyperliquid sets a new standard by treating performance as the starting point, not a feature. It puts trading at the center with HyperCore for live markets and HyperEVM for smart contracts, secured by HyperBFT.
There is no better time than now to start building. The architecture is production-ready, the developer surface is familiar, and the path from idea to live deployment is clear. HLH proved the momentum in public as teams shipped working products in real time, and the network stayed responsive. HypeRPC removed onboarding friction so builders could focus on shipping. We'll expand on the mechanics that made this event possible, share builder outcomes and quotes, and detail how sponsors and HypeRPC formed the backbone from registration to demo to production.

HypeRPC Delivers the Infrastructure Layer for Hyperliquid Builders
HypeRPC exists to make Hyperliquid’s performance accessible to builders in production. The network’s execution speed only matters if teams can reliably reach it under load, and this is where HypeRPC acts as the infrastructure layer behind HLH. During the hackathon, HypeRPC processed over 250,000 RPC requests with zero downtime, keeping builders connected in real time as they deployed, tested, and iterated live on-chain in less than 2 days. Dedicated endpoints deliver sub-1 ms latency, and validator-peered routes cut this down further to under 500 microseconds, which is critical for trading apps, bots, or anything latency-sensitive.
Beyond raw speed, the advantage comes from design: HypeRPC manages and hosts Hyperliquid endpoints directly, with regional routing in Europe and Japan to ensure low latency no matter where builders connect. The HypeRPC Data API exposes Hyperliquid market state, funding data, user trading data, and L2 orderbook feeds in milliseconds, allowing teams to plug real market data into dashboards, trading systems, or on-chain strategies without complexity. HLH proved this in practice.
HLH as a Reflection of Hyperliquid Performance and Builder Outcomes
HLH operated as a concentrated, real-world demonstration of Hyperliquid under active conditions. The Seoul Hackathon was the first in-person Hyperliquid hackathon and it showcased what happens when low-latency infra meets a builder-first chain. Teams built directly on-chain against live liquidity and state updates on HyperCore, then shipped working products without relying on mock data or test environments. The format showed that builders can move from idea to deployment inside Hyperliquid while maintaining low latency, predictable execution, and a familiar development surface through HyperEVM.
The outcomes reflected both range and readiness. Hyperliquid Copilot, EdgeScan, HODL BOT, Hyper Homo, STIBS, HyperFlash, Tetrics, BasisX, Hypersona, and AlgoGene presented live integrations that depended on market data, on-chain logic, or execution flows native to Hyperliquid. Sponsor tracks from deBridge, RedStone, and Pyth added cross chain messaging, oracle feeds, and market intelligence, which expanded what teams could prototype within the event window. Together, the results showed an ecosystem where infrastructure, tooling, and applications operate in front of users and judges with production intent.

Sponsors Who Helped Make HLH Possible
HLH came together with the support of a strong sponsor group that gave builders credible infrastructure, liquidity, data, and tooling. B Harvest, our local co-hosts in Korea, handled on-site setup, event operations, video production, and media coverage, which kept the weekend organized from arrival through closing. RedStone, Chainstack, Relay.link, Flowdesk, Pyth, Privy, AltLayer, Kinetiq, Hyperion DeFi, Pear Protocol, Valantis, Based App, Slash, Harmonix Finance, Hyperdrive, Hyperswap, Hyperpie, IMC, Kintsu, Narrative, xD, and Hyperbeat contributed to the environment that made it possible for teams to build confidently from day one.
Hyperdrive is Hyperliquid’s Yield Hub built on the HyperEVM. It offers earn/borrow through its money markets, a 0 fee HYPE LST, liquid HLP, and one-click strategies to multiply yield. All in one app. Security partners include Enigma Dark, Bail Security, and Obsidian Audits.
RedStone delivers modular oracle infrastructure built to the highest reliability standard for on-chain finance, trusted by leading protocols across 110+ chains. Builders rely on RedStone for low-latency price feeds and verifiable proof of reserves, and RedStone Atom is the first OEV-aware oracle layer engineered for liquidation-critical flows. The full stack has been independently audited by Halborn, PeckShield, Cantina, Codespect, AuditOne, and ABDK, validating the stack’s security and operational efficiency.
HyperSwap operates the native AMM DEX and liquidity hub on HyperEVM. Its application enables token swaps, liquidity management, and simple token launches. Users may access these functions directly through the HyperSwap app.
Builder Launches and Insights on Hyperliquid and HLH
Here are the top ten winners who showed how fast real teams can turn ideas into working products on Hyperliquid: Hyperliquid Copilot, EdgeScan, HODL BOT, Hyper Homo, STIBS, HyperFlash, Tetrics, BasisX, Hypersona, and AlgoGene. Their launches speak to what is possible when performance, liquidity, and builder tooling line up. Let's hear directly from several builders about what they shipped, why they chose Hyperliquid, and their advice for the next wave of builders.
STIBS (Jo Lim, Product)
STIBS is a social trading app built on Hyperliquid’s Builder Codes. It lets users trade spot and perps via Builder Codes, follow friends’ trades and commentary in-feed, track top traders’ activity and performance, and join or host trading community groups with verifiable PnL. The team’s HLH goal was to prove the idea and ship a working version in two days by cutting scope to an MVP and showing it running live in front of judges. Jo's advice is: “Just build. Put real product in front of users as fast as you can. Validate your idea and your execution before you talk about go to market. If it works, keep going. If it doesn't, cut it and move on.”
BasisX (Olga Suvorova, Co-founder)
BasisX turns funding rates into a first-class market on Hyperliquid. Using HIP-3, the team lists perps like frpBTC and frpETH where the underlying is the funding stream itself so traders can go long or short the rate, hedge basis risk, and build carry strategies that live outside of coin beta. The choice to build on Hyperliquid centers on HIP-3 as an executable standard with stake, slashing, OI caps, and clean settlement, and on a perps-first UX aimed at NASDAQ-grade market structure. Their HLH experience highlighted a supportive community that pooled testnet HYPE and unblocked them quickly. Olga advises builders: “Start with one sharp hypothesis about trader behavior or risk. Scope brutally. Write tests before you write threads. Ship a minimal market in week one, talk to real traders daily, and let HIP-3’s guardrails carry some complexity for you. There’s always room for a new idea, persistence and stamina turn it into a market. And be generous: share notes, say thank you. It compounds.”
HyperFlash (Andrei De Stefani, Lead Developer)
HyperFlash enables high-frequency trading across Hyperliquid and all of DeFi, completing orders in milliseconds while maximizing capital efficiency. Andrei and his team entered HLH driven by the belief that Hyperliquid can power global finance in the future and that truly transformative products can be built on its architecture.
The idea for HyperFlash came unexpectedly, at midnight, twelve hours into the hackathon. That “light-bulb moment” defined their sprint as they built through the night to bring the concept to life. Reflecting on the experience, Andrei said the biggest takeaway was realizing “how much I’m still yet to learn.” His advice for future HLH builders is simple but powerful: “Your idea must be unique and have real economical utility. I’ve won in every single hackathon I competed in thanks to this approach. Can’t wait to see more Hyperliquid builders creating amazing projects.”
Tetrics (Sakuro Imayama, CEO)
Tetrics turns cross-chain yield into a unified margin on Hyperliquid for exchange builders. After long-time usage as traders, the team built on Hyperliquid and found in-person HLH valuable for talking with founders and ecosystem contributors and getting direct feedback during development. He advises, “Join and build cool stuff whatever you want, and ask for feedback there.”
HyperPlug (Armando Medina, Fullstack)
The HyperPlug widget integrates deBridge’s API endpoints to enable cross-chain asset transfers. The team joined HLH to try to learn new tools and smooth cross-chain swaps and DeFi flows using deBridge with Hyperliquid. Armando's advice is unbeatable: “Keep on building!”
AlgoGene (Tony Lam, Founder)
At Hyperliquid, AlgoGene launched an Algo-Strategy Generator designed for professional traders and retail users. The project enables users to create, backtest, and deploy advanced trading bots in a few clicks, with a research lab for professionals and plug-and-play bots with predefined risk settings for retail users.
The team chose Hyperliquid for seamless integration with HyperEVM and HyperCore, which provides low-latency access to liquidity and high reliability, and they emphasized the collaborative spirit and rapid feedback at HLH. Tony advises builders: “I encourage you to unleash your creativity and not shy away from trying innovative ideas. The hackathon environment is the perfect space to experiment and push boundaries without fear of failure. Talk to a diverse range of people—developers, business experts, and fellow participants to explore both the technical aspects and the business potential of your concepts. Engaging with different perspectives can spark new insights and help you refine your ideas. Remember, the most groundbreaking solutions often come from thinking outside the box and collaborating across disciplines. So, be bold, be curious, and embrace the journey!”
How HypeRPC Turns Hackathons into Long-Term Ecosystem Growth
HLH worked as an on-ramp production, not just a weekend sprint. With day-zero, production-grade RPC access, teams built against live liquidity and real state, then shipped working products without rewrites. HypeRPC removed onboarding friction, kept p99 responsive under load, and exposed market data through the Data API so dashboards, bots, and strategies could plug in fast.
What’s Next for Hyperliquid and HLH’s Global Builder Expansion
The success of HLH in Seoul set the foundation for a global expansion. The upcoming roadmap includes HLH Global, a series of regionally hosted hackathons designed to bring more builders with a shared version closer together. Anyone interested in participating, sponsoring, or running HLH in a future region can reach out through X at HypeRPC or HLH Build.
