Hyperliquid benefits from the wave of RWA trading
$HYPE increased by about 3% on the day and nearly 20% for the week, thanks to strong demand for trading in real asset futures (RWA). On this Perp DEX platform, Open Interest (OI) has risen to about 1.3 billion USD, indicating that trading flows are expanding rapidly.
1. Oil price volatility drives trading demand
Tensions in the Middle East have caused strong fluctuations in the energy market, especially when supply through the Strait of Hormuz has been disrupted. This has led to a high demand for trading in oil-related derivatives.
In this context, Hyperliquid has become a destination for traders thanks to its 24/7 trading model, especially when traditional markets close on weekends.
2. Rapid growth of RWA futures
Through proposal HIP-3, Hyperliquid allows the creation of perpetual futures for many real assets. Notably, the OI of HIP-3 has reached about 1.33 billion USD, reflecting the rapid expansion of this trading segment.
The trading volume of crude oil in 24 hours on the platform also exceeded 1.17 billion USD, indicating that the energy market is the main driver for cash flows.
