Whether you're a passive staker or an active trader, the launch of HyperEVM brings new opportunities to **maximize your yield, stay liquid, and grow your portfolio**.

### **How to Get Started:**

1.  **Stake $HYPE on Hyperdrive** and receive $**HYPED tokens** for liquidity and rewards.
    
2.  **Trade with $HYPED, supply $HYPED, or borrow more assets** using $HYPED as collateral.
    
3.  **Use one-click strategies** to maximize your earning potential.
    
4.  Track everything **on Hyperdrive in real-time**.
    

### **What Is Liquid Staking and Why Does It Matter for You?**

*   **Traditional staking:** When you stake your tokens, they’re locked up—you can’t use them in trades, loans, or liquidity pools.
    
*   **Liquid staking:** On Hyperdrive, you can securely stake your HYPE tokens and receive HYPED tokens representing your staked position. These HYPED tokens can be used across DeFi, allowing you to:
    
    *   Lend or trade your staked position for more earnings.
        
    *   Provide liquidity while still earning staking rewards.
        
    *   Borrow against your staked tokens without sacrificing your earnings.
        

Liquid staking effectively lets you "double-dip" by keeping your staked position productive in multiple ways.
