  • HyperCore Hyperliquid's exchange state machine: the order books, margin engine, liquidation logic and oracle prices. Trades here pay no gas because they are not EVM transactions.
  • HYPE The native token of the Hyperliquid chain. It pays gas on HyperEVM, can be staked for rewards and a trading fee discount, and carries governance weight.
