Frequently asked questions

Is Hypersight custodial? Do you hold my funds?

No. Hypersight is a non-custodial front-end for Hyperliquid. Your funds live in your own Hyperliquid account, and only you (or a trading agent you approve) can move them. You can withdraw at any time.

Do I need an account?

Your wallet is your account. You can sign up with just an email — Hypersight creates a secure, self-custodial wallet for you (exportable anytime) — or connect an existing wallet if you already have one. No password either way.

What is a trading agent, and is it safe?

A trading agent is a delegated key that signs your orders so you don’t confirm each one in your wallet. It can trade but not withdraw — it can never move funds out of your account. You can revoke it at any time. Prefer to keep your wallet in the loop? Turn on no-agent mode and your wallet signs each action directly, with no stored key. See Trading agents.

What do I deposit to start trading?

USDC is the simplest — it’s the collateral for perps, spot, and prediction markets. You can also deposit HYPE. See Deposit funds.

Which chains can I deposit from?

Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, Optimism, Polygon, BNB Chain, and Solana, via LI.FI routing. See Deposit funds.

Can I buy crypto with a card?

Yes, through Transak. Hypersight never sees your card details. See Buy with a card.

What fees does Hypersight charge?

Hyperliquid’s standard protocol fees (reduced by any VIP/staking/referral discounts) plus a 0.05% Hypersight builder fee on perp and spot trades. Swaps and bridges include a small routing fee. See Fees.

How do I earn points?

Mainly by trading — points scale with the volume you trade through Hypersight. You also earn from referrals and some badges. Find your balance in Portfolio → Points. See Points.

Do I earn cash for referrals?

Yes. Once you’ve traded $10,000 of volume you can create a referral link, and you then earn a 25% cash rebate (in USDC) on the fees everyone you refer pays — from their first trade, for life — on top of referral points. Claim it to your wallet anytime from Portfolio → Referral. See Referrals.

How do prediction markets work?

You buy YES/NO (or UP/DOWN) shares; the winning side redeems for 1 USDC at settlement, the losing side for 0. Share prices read as implied probabilities. See Outcomes.

What’s the difference between Swap and Bridge?

Swap exchanges one token for another on HyperEVM. Bridge moves assets between chains (e.g. Arbitrum → Hyperliquid). See Swap and Bridge.

How do I withdraw?

From your Portfolio’s Withdraw tab. Withdrawals require standard account mode — Hypersight prompts you to switch back if needed. See Bridge.

Can I see other traders’ positions?

Yes — the Whales leaderboard ranks top traders, and every address has a public profile at /u/<address>.

Is there a keyboard shortcut to find things fast?

Yes — ⌘K / Ctrl+K opens the command palette to search markets, traders, addresses, and pages.
