HyperLiquid is a decentralized exchange for trading perpetual contracts. It runs on its own HyperEVM blockchain; deposits and withdrawals go through the Arbitrum One network. Email registration is not required — access is through a Web3 wallet.

What you will need:

  • Smartphone (Android/iOS) or browser extension

  • Web3 wallet (MetaMask, Rabby, Trust Wallet, or any other with WalletConnect support)

  • ~$30 to get started: $5–10 ETH for gas fees + USDC for trading

This guide uses MetaMask as an example. The process for other wallets is similar — only the app interface will differ.


1. MetaMask Installation and Setup

Installing the Application

Download MetaMask from the official store:

Creating a Wallet

  1. Open the MetaMask application

  2. Create a wallet following the in-app instructions

  3. Set a strong password

We recommend the Recovery Phrase (seed phrase) method.

⚠️ Write your seed phrase down on paper and store it in a secure place. Without it, you cannot restore access to your wallet.

Configuring Arbitrum One Network

  1. Open MetaMask

  2. Tap the network menu at the top of the screen

  3. Select Arbitrum One

  4. Enable display of the USDC token

Saving Your Wallet Address

  1. On the MetaMask main screen, tap your wallet address

  2. Copy the Arbitrum address

  3. Save it — you will need it for deposits and connection

Funding the Wallet

Transfer to your wallet address:

  • ETH: ~$10–20 for transaction fees (gas)

  • USDC: the amount you plan to trade with

⚠️ When transferring, always select the Arbitrum One network.

After sending, check that the funds have arrived in the MetaMask application.


2. Connecting MetaMask to HyperLiquid

Connecting the Wallet

  1. Click the Connect button

  2. Select the WalletConnect option

Scanning the QR Code

  1. Open the MetaMask application

  2. Select the QR code scanner

  3. Point the camera at the QR code on your computer screen

Confirming the Connection

  1. In MetaMask, confirm the connection

  2. Select the account to connect

  3. Tap Connect

Activating Trading

  1. On the HyperLiquid website, check the boxes agreeing to the terms

  2. Click Enable Trading

  3. Confirm the action in MetaMask

Depositing to Your HyperLiquid Balance

  1. Click the Deposit button on the HyperLiquid website

  2. Enter the amount of USDC to transfer

  3. Confirm the transaction in MetaMask

⚠️ Transfer only USDC. Leave ETH in MetaMask to cover gas fees.

After confirmation, funds will appear on your HyperLiquid balance — usually within 1–2 minutes.
