HYPERLIQUID
Say it back 🫵
Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) and trade[XYZ] have announced their plan to use Hyperliquid as the infrastructure layer to deploy perpetual futures markets for US traders across crypto, equities, commodities, foreign exchange, and other real-world assets, subject to regulatory approvals. ICE operates NYSE and some of the largest exchanges and clearing houses globally.
In this structure:
+ Hyperliquid serves as the underlying technology infrastructure via HIP-3*
+ trade[XYZ] designs and implements the markets
+ ICE operates the regulated market and clearing structure
Existing trade[XYZ] HIP-3 markets will remain unchanged.
Hyperliquid is a neutral infrastructure layer with the goal of supporting large parts of the financial system. As with HIP-3, HIP-3* deployers are independent operators who use Hyperliquid as the onchain infrastructure layer for their own markets, while retaining control and responsibility over their deployment.

A man left Twitter to build a crypto wallet with no token of its own, and somehow turned it into a $3 BILLION company.
> Brandon Millman worked as a senior engineer at Twitter from 2013 to 2017.
> He moved into crypto and joined 0x, a project building infrastructure for decentralised trading on Ethereum.
> After spending years working on crypto infrastructure, he teamed up with Francesco Agosti and Chris Kalani to build something of their own.
> They wanted to make using crypto simpler.
> In 2021, the three started building Phantom, a wallet that initially focused on Solana.
> At the time, Solana was still growing, and Phantom was betting that more people would need a simple way to interact with its ecosystem.
> By July 2021, Phantom had raised $9 MILLION from investors led by Andreessen Horowitz.
> Then its user base started taking off.
> By September 2021, Phantom was adding around 100,000 users a week with just six developers and a couple of contractors.
> In January 2022, it raised $109 MILLION at a $1.2 BILLION valuation.
> Three years later, it raised another $150 MILLION at a $3 BILLION valuation.
> And it did all this without launching its own token.
> Today, Phantom is one of crypto's most widely used wallets, giving millions of people access to digital assets and blockchain applications.
Brandon left Twitter and bet on an emerging ecosystem to build a multibillion-dollar company.
Imagine if he'd just stayed at Twitter.

New data out today on how Americans feel about the financial system. Phantom helped sponsor this research through @fund_defi, and @Ipsos ran it independently on the same panel the Fed uses. What stood out: people want more control over their money than they have now. 🧵
