The Hyperliquid Foundation, which oversees the perpetuals trading platform and its associated Layer 1 blockchain network, recently addressed its community to clarify concerns regarding validator operations, decentralization, and transparency.

Hyperliquid's Validator Qualification and Expansion Plans

The foundation reaffirmed that all network validators are selected based on their performance during the testnet phase. It explicitly dismissed claims suggesting that participants could 'buy a seat at the table,' ensuring the selection process remains merit-based. Hyperliquid also shared plans to gradually expand the validator set to improve decentralization and increase network security. Additionally, concerns about centralization around API servers were addressed with clarification that anyone can operate an API server pointing to any node within the network.

HYPE Token Operations

Launched in November 2024, the HYPE token experienced significant value growth following its community airdrop. However, after reaching its peak in December, the price fell by 40%. Recent reports state that HYPE's market cap is approximately $7.1 billion.

Hyperliquid's Market Achievements

In December alone, Hyperliquid facilitated $160 billion in futures trading volume, generating $47 million in revenue. The company achieved significant growth in its market share within the perpetual DEX ecosystem over the past year, increasing it from 10% to 70%. A VanEck report highlights Hyperliquid's success due to product improvement, a strong distribution mechanism, and a loyal community.
