how to trade on the Hyperliquid Trenches (hypercore)
if you're still trading on @solana wondering why every launch feels the same, billions in volume but everything tops at 100k, this is your sign. Hyperliquid Spot is where the game resets
- first, why?
one coin per ticker. forever. no PvP, no vamp, no scams. hyperliquid has $4.5B TVL, $3T annual volume, and everyone already using it can access the hyperliquid trenches with 1 click
0.05% fees. yeah, while you trade paying 1% on solana, on hyperliquid fees are 0.05%, with no gas fees too
the trenches here are small, early, and real. you can actually know every single coin on the chain. when's the last time you could say that about solana
now, let's get you in
step 1: go to
connect your wallet. metamask, rabby, whatever you use. click the deposit button in the top right, copy your wallet
- step 2: bridge USDC using
bridge USDC from any chain to Hypercore using (@AcrossProtocol) - 0 fees!
step 3: find your coin
go to (@liquidscreener) and you'll see all listed spot tokens. pick one, sort by trending coins, sort by volume, age, mcap, with charts and token profiles
step 4: buy
select your pair (example: WAGMI/USDC). you can place a market order or a limit order just like any CEX. the order book is fully onchain but feels instant
that's it. you're in the hyperliquid spot trenches
things to know
- spot trading fees are low. 0.05%
- there's no gas fee on orders
- there's only one token per ticker
- to list a token, you must win an auction
the first time you trade on hyperliquid spot you'll notice something. it's quiet. not dead quiet, but active quiet. there aren't 10,000 coins launching every hour. there aren't bots front-running you on every buy. there's no wall of scam tokens with copied names
it's just a clean order book, a small set of coins that earned their place, and a community that actually holds. it feels like 2023 trenches energy on 2026 infrastructure
the meta here isn't speed, but conviction. finding a coin with a legendary ticker, a real community, being early, and sitting in it
the trenches were always supposed to feel like this
