Use Cases
USDhl unlocks the following use cases on Hyperliquid L1.
I. Passive Savings
Where to deploy
How it works
Why USDhl
Felix Vanilla Markets (lending)
Supply USDhl → earn borrower interest + embedded Treasury yield
Beats zero‑yield USDC/USDT without extra risk
HyperEVM AMMs (Curve / Hyperswap)
Add USDhl liquidity → earn swap fees, HYPE rewards, Treasury yield
Beats zero‑yield USDC/USDT without extra risk
II. Perps Margin
HIP‑3 enables USDhl to be recognized as first‑class collateral for new perp markets.
Traders post USDhl margin and continue to earn stable yield while positions are open - this cuts the cost of active perp positions.
Example: A 10 × long ETH perp financed with USDhl costs nothing in opportunity cost versus USDC,.
III. Payments & Cross-Border Transfers
HyperCore’s zero‑fee transfer()
function turns Hyperliquid L1 into a cheap settlement rail for payments. Overtime, as more capital comes on Hyperliquid, we expect the L1 to be a utility for money movement between parties, with USDhl one of the core assets used for this use case.
