Why do we need Hyperion?
As a high-performance public chain, Aptos is striving to build the vision of "global on-chain transaction engine". Relying on the technical advantages of parallel execution, final confirmation in seconds, and strong scalability, it has become an important candidate for the next-generation infrastructure. But the fact is that the early Aptos ecosystem still faces typical DeFi pain points:
Fragmented liquidity and low efficiency of capital deployment
Dispersed transaction paths and fragmented user experience
Lack of sustainable and structured income products and insufficient willingness to deposit funds
The maturity of on-chain finance is inseparable from efficient transactions, stable liquidity and a complete income system. The emergence of Hyperion is precisely to solve these real pain points and build a truly usable and sustainable DeFi infrastructure for the Aptos ecosystem.
How does Hyperion reshape Aptos liquidity?
Hyperion has built a unified, efficient and composable on-chain financial engine that integrates:
Smart Aggregator: intelligent routing of liquidity across the entire chain, support for multi-hop order splitting, and optimize transaction prices and slippage experience.
Centralized Liquidity Market (CLMM): Based on the Uniswap v3 model, LPs can provide liquidity in a specific price range to improve capital efficiency and trading depth.
Directed Liquidity Market (DLMM): Supports asymmetric and directional strategies, and flexibly responds to volatile assets and dynamic markets.
Open Vault Platform: Strategy providers can freely deploy automated liquidity strategies, and ordinary users can participate in efficient interest-earning without tedious operations.
This modular architecture breaks the problem of fund fragmentation in the traditional DEX isolated pool model:
Mainstream assets enhance trading depth through CLMM
Volatile assets are dynamically adapted to liquidity by DLMM
Intelligent routing opens up the entire chain transaction path, reducing slippage and operating costs
The Vault platform lowers the threshold for strategy participation and realizes revenue automation
In the end, Hyperion built a "unified liquidity map" shared by the entire chain, which not only provides traders with the best execution path, but also brings sustainable and efficient capital utilization to LPs.
What did Hyperion do?
In the past 5 months, with the joint witness of the Aptos community, Hyperion has used data and products to prove its value as the core liquidity and financial entrance of Aptos:
US$7.1 billion cumulative trading volume, building the Aptos trading home: Since its launch, Hyperion's cumulative trading volume has exceeded US$7.1 billion, ranking the most active DEX in the Aptos network and becoming one of the top ten DEXs in the entire network (by trading volume). Among them, the peak daily trading volume has repeatedly set new highs, and the current average daily trading volume is stable in the range of US$125 million to US$150 million, showing strong user activity and market demand.
US$130 million TVL, capital efficiency and on-chain income go hand in hand: Hyperion's current total locked-in volume (TVL) exceeds US$130 million. Through active liquidity strategies, automatic reinvestment Vault systems and efficient LP solutions, it has created an on-chain asset management experience with high returns, low barriers and optimal capital utilization. More importantly, Hyperion effectively coordinates transaction volume and TVL scale, continuously improves the actual use efficiency of unit funds, ensures that every liquidity truly serves on-chain transactions and ecological growth, and avoids idle funds and inefficient precipitation.
Top capital endorsement, solid ecological foundation: Hyperion has completed strategic financing, led by OKX Ventures, and co-invested by Aptos Foundation, Maelstrom (Arthur Hayes), Mirana Ventures and other leading institutions. This is not only a recognition of the team's capabilities, but also a high degree of trust in Hyperion's modular DeFi infrastructure vision.
The Vault system is officially launched, and the user's income experience is fully upgraded. Hyperion Vault has covered:
Automatic reinvestment mechanism to reduce the operating threshold
Highly controllable centralized LP strategy to improve capital utilization efficiency
Multi-asset income portfolio, enriching investment configuration space. Help users easily obtain stable income and reduce the complexity of on-chain operations.
Build a BTC asset liquidity hub and expand the boundaries of the Aptos ecosystem: Hyperion has become the main liquidity center for BTC synthetic asset transactions (such as xBTC, aBTC) on the Aptos chain through cooperation with OKX, ECHO, etc. High-quality market depth and smooth trading experience further promote the deep integration of the Aptos ecosystem and BTC assets.
The community is the protagonist of the Hyperion ecosystem. We are continuously strengthening the participation stickiness of Aptos native users through mechanisms such as DRIPs. The Hyperion community has now formed a stable user network:
More than 30,000 Discord community members
More than 130,000 Twitter followers
Nearly 950,000 DRIPs active users
Among them, DRIPs, as an on-chain incentive system, effectively improves user participation and ecological positive cycle.
RION and the next step layout
Hyperion has completed product construction from 0 to 1, and the user network and transaction ecosystem have begun to take shape. We believe that real infrastructure is more than just functionality, it belongs to all those who drive its growth.
To this end, RION and xRION will serve as key hubs to guide more builders, traders and community members to deeply participate and build the future togetherAt the same time, it further promotes Hyperion to the next stage:
- RION: The native, cryptographically secure, and tradable tokens of the Hyperion platform undertake multiple practical functions within the ecosystem, mainly used to support transactions, decentralized settlements, and xRION anchoring to obtain ecosystem participation qualifications and other scenarios;
- xRION: The governance right carrier of the Hyperion ecosystem. Users can obtain xRION by locking RION, which represents governance participation and time commitment, binding users' long-term value
TGE (Token Generation Event) will be officially launched in July, and Hyperion will be launched one after another afterwards:
Advanced Vault strategy to improve the income experience
AMM upgrade to optimize transaction efficiency and capital utilization
BTC market expansion, deep connection between Aptos and mainstream asset networks
Launchpool plans to cooperate with multiple chains to encourage ecological co-construction
A new round of trading competitions, recommendation incentives and community expansion activities
Hyperion will become the financial bottom layer of Aptos
5 months, $7.1 billion in transaction volume, $130 million in TVL, and top institutional support. Hyperion has used data and products to prove itself as the most resilient and vital financial infrastructure builder on Aptos.
In the next stage, with the launch of RION, we will continue to improve the product matrix, connect more on-chain assets, and release richer profit scenarios, so that every participant can benefit from the development of Hyperion.
The real financial bottom layer will be an open network that continues to evolve. Hyperion hopes to become the connector, amplifier and community of this network. If you are a builder, developer, long-term user or community contributor of Aptos, we not only welcome you to join
