Getting StartedOverview

Getting Started

Going from zero to your first trade on Hypersight takes four steps. Your wallet is your account — and if you don’t have one, you can create it in seconds with just an email.

Sign up or connect a wallet

Sign up with an email and Hypersight creates a secure, self-custodial wallet for you, or connect an existing wallet (MetaMask, WalletConnect, Coinbase Wallet, Rainbow, hardware wallets). Read Connect a wallet.

Fund your account

Bridge USDC (or HYPE) onto Hyperliquid from almost any chain, or buy with a card. Read Deposit funds and Buy with a card.

Approve a trading agent

Sign once to approve a trading agent so you don’t have to confirm every order in your wallet. Read Your first trade.

Trade

Open the trading desk, pick a market, and place an order. Everything settles directly on Hyperliquid.

You stay in control the whole time. Hypersight is non-custodial — funds live in your Hyperliquid account, and you can withdraw at any time.

What is Hyperliquid?

Hyperliquid is a high-performance on-chain exchange. It has two layers:

  • HyperCore — the trading engine where perps, spot, and prediction markets settle.
  • HyperEVM — an EVM-compatible chain used for smart contracts, swaps, and as the settlement hop when bridging in and out.

Hypersight sits on top of both. When you deposit, your funds land where they need to be (usually your HyperCore spot or perp balance) so you can start trading immediately — you generally don’t need to think about the two layers yourself.
