Hyperliquid still allows relatively high leverage, drawing whales to promising trades. Recently, a whale used the 20X leverage feature to long BTC . The perpetual DEX is also popular for shorting ETH due to the relatively predictable downward trend. As a result, Hyperliquid has produced over $39M in fees for the past month, which is close to Uniswap. The DEX has produced over $304M in total fees since its launch.
