This is the story of Hyperliquid, the most profitable startup per employee on earth, told from a guarded office in Singapore.
Last year, its team of 11 generated $900 million in profit. It's 3 years old, has never taken a dollar of venture capital, and is beginning to change how century-old markets work.
Its founder, Jeffrey Yan (@chameleon_jeff), had never taken a physics class when he picked up a textbook at 16. Two years later, he won gold at the International Physics Olympiad. In 2019, he started trading with $10,000 from a living room in Puerto Rico—working off a television because he didn't own a monitor.
Within 3 years, he was running one of the largest anonymous crypto trading firms.
Then he shut it down. Yan was rich and free, but he had spent years inside crypto, watching it betray itself. Bitcoin's central premise was decentralization. Yet the biggest exchanges were centralized. Crypto kept reintroducing the dependence on trust it was built to eliminate. He set out to create what should have existed.
Hyperliquid is a blockchain with a trading exchange on top, and anyone can build on it. Yan's vision is to house all of finance. In 3 years, it has done over $4 trillion in volume. And in the past few months, it has begun to outgrow crypto.
Markets for oil, silver, and the S&P 500 now trade on Hyperliquid around the clock, weekends included, and are growing roughly 40% week on week. When the US and Israel bombed Iran on a Saturday in February, Hyperliquid was the venue traders turned to.
Hyperliquid's success has cost Yan his freedom. He works out of a secret office in Singapore and cannot travel without two bodyguards. Even the team's housekeeper doesn't know what they do.
In January, @domcooke spent a week at their office. Read his profile on Yan and @HyperliquidX below.

Tesla V14.3 self-driving review. The point releases will bring polish.
V15 will far exceed human levels of safety, even in completely unsupervised and complex situations.
Zack@BLKMDL3
600 miles in with FSD v14.3 already and here are my thoughts: The improved reaction time is immediately noticeable and definitely quicker than a human could react. Yesterday a semi truck swerved fast into my lane and the car reacted insanely quickly to get me around them. Tesla says it’s 20% quicker but feels more than that- and it was already extremely good. I’ll start by saying FSD was already so great with v14.2 that it’s sometimes hard to find new things, but there some huge apparent changes immediately noticeable with v14.3. To those who think it’s not a big improvement over v14.2.x+, you’ll be very impressed and especially with some more polish. The reinforcement learning upgrades and thinking are noticeable. Parking is where you immediately notice some changes. In the release notes it says that parking is quicker and more decisive and it’s true. It has picked spots closer and quicker to the selected pin. My Y isn’t showing the new P pin graphic for parking pin for some reason, but it’s definitely parking closer than before with more thought to it. Looking forward to eventually getting more options to hopefully park either closer or further away from people. For the very first v14.3+ build, I have to say it’s pretty polished. The only gripe I have is the way it won’t get out of the left lane soon enough on highways. It likes to cruise in the left lane which isn’t ideal, it’s gotten better but the addition of reduction in unnecessary lane changes needs to be dialed back a bit. Lane changes are a huge plus with this build and they are quick, decisive and executed very well, smooth as butter too. Turn signals come on at way better times now in parking lots and at the perfect time on the road. I was lucky enough to get the update with 600 miles left of my 1800 mile Oregon road trip, so I pulled over to install it so I could get as much experience as possible with it to share with you all. So far 600+ miles in, I’m impressed. A few rough edges with the left lane behavior and the last few inches of parking are a bit slow 1/5 times until it puts it into park but with a point release update everything should be dialed in. The 350 mile drive home today from the Bay Area had zero intervention including all parking and charging. One thing I would love to see implemented is a reset button for the FSD stats page. Would be cool to have a specific trip meter for FSD stats on Trip A/B or make your own trip. I’ve been hinting at a pretty cool road trip next month with my 2025 Model 3 so it would be cool to have a reset for that. Speed control seems good on highways, it’s matching traffic speed great. Braking is very impressive for sudden slowdowns, had a big one in San Jose last night it did a great job with from 80-10mph. HUGE improvements with stop sign behavior. The acceleration and deceleration are way smoother than before, much more pleasant. Mad Max takes off strong but again, a better curve than before. Mad Max is also polished a bit and feels great. FSD v14.3 did a great job in LA traffic once I got back and will go out this evening to film videos for everyone on my normal test loops. Let me know if there’s anything specific I should try or check out. Can’t wait to see how v14.3+ progresses especially with the upgraded reasoning coming to all scenarios soon. Some awesome additions here. THANK YOU everyone @Tesla_AI for all the hard work getting this update out. More videos to come.

COINBASE: NO MARGIN CALLS FOR BITCOIN-BACKED MORTGAGES
Coinbase says its crypto-backed mortgages will carry rates around 0.5% to 1.5% higher than a standard 30-year, depending on borrower profile.
Loans feature no margin calls or collateral top-ups.
BTC price drops do not change loan terms or trigger liquidation.
Collateral is only at risk after 60 days of missed payments, aligning with traditional mortgage standards.
Bitcoin News@BitcoinNewsCom
NEW: Coinbase and Fannie Mae partner with Better Home & Finance to launch Bitcoin-backed mortgages for U.S. homebuyers. Borrowers can pledge Bitcoin or USD Coin as collateral for down payments, allowing them to keep their assets and avoid triggering taxable sales. The loans are structured as conforming mortgages backed by Fannie Mae, meaning they follow standard underwriting rules and carry the same protections as traditional home loans. The product targets everyday buyers locked out by down payment constraints. Better says 41% of U.S. families can’t purchase homes due to lack of liquid cash, despite holding savings in other assets. Rising interest rates and high home prices have tightened affordability. A buyer targeting a $400K home may struggle to source $40K in cash without selling assets and navigating tax and legal friction. Coinbase says the offering brings crypto into mainstream housing finance, calling it “as American as apple pie.”

When people said Hyperliquid will be studied for generations, it sounded like a joke.
But its actually happening.
One of the Harvard professors: Mahesh Ramakrishnan, held what might be the first lecture about the origin of Hyperliquid, the team and their path to success.
Really glad to see events of this scale happening around Hyperliquid.
Thanks to the Harvard professors for onboarding new like-minded people into the Hyperliquid ecosystem.
Study Hyperliquid.

Hyperliquid Annual Report 2025
Today, we're excited to release Hyperliquid's 2025 Annual Report.
What Hyperliquid, the core team, and hundreds of contributors have built this year is largely unprecedented in financial history. This report is our attempt to capture that extraordinary year with the rigor it deserves.
A few months ago, we created HRC because we felt a clear need to reduce information asymmetry and lower entry barriers for new participants through independent research. We hope this report helps do exactly that.
For us, it is a privilege to be part of this ecosystem and to have produced this work. Months of research, data work, debate, and collaboration across Four Pillars, GLC, and all our contributors went into every page. It means a lot to share it today, so please, let us know what you think and how we can improve the reporting going forward.
Enjoy the read. Some excerpts below, with the link to the full PDF.
Hyperliquid.

2. President Trump is trying to "buy time" in the Iran War
3. President Trump "withdrew" from power plant strikes after Iran's "firm warning"
4. President Trump's comments are "psychological warfare"
5. "Hormuz will not return to pre-war conditions as long as psychological warfare continues"
Iran has entirely denied all of President Trump's claims.

Elon Musk sharing his favorite and funniest economist joke 😂
“Two economists are going for a walk in the forest, and they come across a pile of sht. One economist says, “I’ll pay you $100 to eat a pile of sht.” The other takes the $100 and eats it
Then they keep walking and come across another pile of sht. The second economist says, “Okay, I’ll give you $100 to eat a pile of sht.” So he gives him $100, and he eats it too
Then they say, “Wait a second, we both have the same amount of money, and we both ate a pile of sh*t. Oh my God, It sounds like we increased the economy by $200”

S&P Dow Jones Indices and trade[XYZ] have joined forces to launch the first official S&P 500 perpetual contract, available exclusively on Hyperliquid.
For 69 years, the S&P 500 has been a defining reference point for global finance. Until now, access to that benchmark has been shaped by market hours, intermediaries, and geography. Today, that changes.
The S&P 500 perp is now available 24/7/365, anchored by the official index data required for deep liquidity and institutional confidence at scale.
SPDJI helped define modern indexing. They are stewards of an iconic benchmark, the standard against which portfolios across the globe are measured. We are honored to bring that legacy on-chain.
Trade[XYZ] is bringing the world's most iconic assets towards a future of global, continuous markets — a future powered by Hyperliquid.

Huge congratulations to TradeXYZ and S&P for this historic partnership. I'm honored that these teams choose to build on Hyperliquid.
Seeing official S&P500 perpetual futures launch exclusively on Hyperliquid is a validation of everyone's past years of hard work: global access to decentralized finance, perpetual futures as 24/7 price discovery, and Hyperliquid upgrading the existing financial stack to house all of finance.
The S&P500 is synonymous with "the market," a single number that captures the essence of the largest economy in the world. Looking forward to tracking the world's most important financial gauge 24/7 on the most liquid permissionless markets.
