Why Hyperliquid is the New Comedy King of DeFi (And It’s Not Even Trying!)

Hyperliquid (HYPE) is strutting its stuff as a decentralized perpetuals exchange built on its very own HyperEVM chain. In early March 2026, it emerged as one of DeFi’s most aggressive fee-generating machines. According to the latest weekly report from altFINS, “Hyperliquid generated $14.0M in fees last week, marking a +56% increase week-on-week. Exceptional for a derivatives platform! On-chain perps are finally making waves!”
