Hyperdrive Incident Disclosure – September 27, 2025
On Saturday, September 27, 2025, at approximately 22:00 Singapore time (SGT), the Hyperdrive team was alerted to suspicious on-chain activity affecting the Primary and Treasury USDT₀ markets. Out of an abundance of caution, all markets were immediately paused while we investigated. Following a rapid internal review, we confirmed that the activity was the result of a malicious exploit. Our incident response plan was activated, and a dedicated war room was assembled consisting of the Hyperdrive...

Hyperdrive - THE Stablecoin Money Market
Hyperdrive was created with a vision - The stablecoin market will be crypto’s largest and fastest growing vertical. Though this view may be consensus today, the foundations for Hyperdrive to support this vision begun to be built many years ago. As we prepare to launch, we will outline below why we chose to focus on stablecoin lending, and why on Hyperliquid.The Stablecoin MarketJust 5 years ago in 2020, Ethereum had found its flagship product - DeFi.

Introducing Hyperdrive: The Premier DeFi Hub on HyperEVM
Hyperdrive offers risk mitigated high-yield strategies to those looking to safely park their USDC. Hyperdrive is the premier DeFi hub on Hyperliquid, offering unparalleled yield strategies to all users:Earn - Earn yield on USDC or access Hyperdrive’s curated list of yield strategies. Battle-tested, double-audited lending infrastructure built on Hyperliquid.Borrow - Use Hyperliquid tokens such as $BTC, $HYPE, $PURR as collateral to borrow USDC.Liquid HLP & Leveraged HLP — HLP is Hyperliquid’s ...
Yield-bearing asset that is able to be used as collateral. That's the holy grail in not only crypto, but in all of finance. We see evidence of this through popular strategies such as long USD Treasuries and short JPY.
When Hyperdrive unlocks HLP as a collateral asset, a 0 to 1 shift will take place in the market. A sustainable strategy boosted by liquidation privileges on Hyperliquid, not ponzi yield driven by minting tokens, that is leverageable on Hyperdrive.
Some key characteristics of HLP are its:
✅ 100% Transparent Proof of Reserves
✅ Sustainable MM Strategies
✅ Low Volatility
✅ 0% Performance Fees
✅ To Be Tokenized and Supported as Collateral on Hyperdrive
✅ Swift Withdrawal Liquidity with Hyperdrive - No AMM slippage when liquidating deposits
In March, there were two economic attacks on the HLP vault. Both attacks used a strategy that liquidated the trader's own toxic position. March 12's incident left a 0.7% loss for HLP, while March 26's ended up in profit for HLP after Hyperliquid validators closed toxic positions at an agreed mark price.
The outcome of these events left HLP with minimal losses, and an upgraded strategy that is more resilient against attacks. These events also showed that HLP could process all withdrawals smoothly, even as there were large panic outflows from the vault.
Due to the attacks, there is some ongoing negative sentiment around HLP.
1Y Return = >19%, inclusive of March's drawdown
More than 70% of daily returns are positive
<1% of daily returns were below -1% over the past 14 months
Significantly lower volatility than major cryptoassets like BTC and ETH
Most traditional investors would kill to get access to funds with this type of risk-adjusted performance.
HLP's performance is driven by proprietary market making strategies set by Hyperliquid, as well as priority access to liquidation orderflow.
Liquidations and volatility often cause extreme wicks, allowing buyers to cheaply acquire tokens from distressed positions. On CEXs, this orderflow is often privatized, giving the internal desk or privilieged market makers an advantage. On Hyperliquid, HLP vault depositors get access to this orderflow.
Hyperdrive will support partner assets such as Kinetiq and Thunderhead’s HYPE LSTs on its lending markets in the near future. To further boost yields and point farming, users can supply kHYPE or stHYPE on Hyperdrive, borrow USDC, and loop into tokenized HLP.
Maximize exposure across Hyperliquid verticals with Hyperdrive.
Hyperdrive’s tokenized HLP is coming soon, bringing the ultimate collateral asset live to the public. Users will be able to use it as collateral on Hyperdrive’s very own spot lending market, allowing them to leverage loop for extra yields, or borrow USDC from it to use elsewhere.
