Hyperliquid‘s HIP-4 has begun taking share from Polymarket after opening events trading on the network. The update marks Hyperliquid’s clearest push yet beyond spot and perpetual markets into prediction-style outcome contracts.
The launch matters because HIP-4 introduces a more permissionless route for new event markets, with deployers required to stake 1 million HYPE to reduce spam. HIP-4 saw 6.05 million contracts on its first day, equal to about 0.7% of prediction-market activity, while Polymarket handled 190 million contracts and Kalshi led with 546 million.
The next point to watch is whether Hyperliquid can turn early contract flow into durable liquidity. Its edge is ecosystem integration: users can trade event outcomes alongside spot and perpetual markets from the same wallet, with settlement in USDH and no separate bridge or account flow.
