HYPE rose more than 10% following the announcement, extending momentum from gains posted last week. The token is up over 40% in the past seven days, decoupling from the broader crypto market, which sold off sharply over the weekend. Bitcoin fell to $75,000 during the drawdown before rebounding to around $79,000 by Monday midday.
The new “Outcomes” feature enables fully collateralized, fixed range contracts that settle without leverage, margin calls, or liquidation risk. The product is currently live on testnet and integrates with Hyperliquid’s existing portfolio margin system and HyperEVM.
The team said demand for both prediction markets and limited risk derivatives helped drive the upgrade, with Outcomes designed to expand Hyperliquid’s expressivity beyond traditional perpetuals.
The rollout follows strong adoption of Hyperliquid’s HIP-3 custom perpetual markets, which have driven cumulative trading volume toward $42 billion and pushed open interest to record highs.
