The introduction of Hype DEX by HyperLiquid
Anmol Singh, a co-founder of Zeta Markets, saw the large trading volumes around HYPE’s debut as evidence of the increasing popularity of everlasting platforms and decentralized exchanges. Singh observed that, instead of using centralized exchanges, DEXs are increasingly being chosen for token launches.
Centralized exchanges are now cumbersome and out of date. They offer little to the community or the protocols they list, and they take more than they give. According to the co-founder of Zeta Markets, the popularity of DEX token launches isn’t a passing fad. DEXs will be the obvious choice over CEXs by 2025, when the majority of token launches will take place on them.
HYPE serves a variety of purposes that improve the platform’s usefulness and decentralization, making it an essential component of the HyperLiquid ecosystem. HyperBFT, an enhanced proof-of-stake consensus system that guarantees network security and encourages decentralization, can be staked to protect it. Furthermore, HYPE facilitates transaction fees as the native gas token for the HyperEVM, the network’s execution environment.
