Overview

USDH on HyperCore is enabled via the HIP-1 native token standard. As an aligned quote asset, USDH contributes to the Hyperliquid protocol and provides enhanced functionality for trading and DeFi applications.

These parameters are standard across canonical stablecoin deployments on HyperCore, and compliance is enforced by the network as a prerequisite for quote asset status.

Use Cases

Spot Trading

USDH is available in spot balances for trading on multiple markets including USDH/USDC and HYPE/USDH.

Collateral for HIP-3 DEXes

USDH can be used as collateral for HIP-3 decentralized exchanges including Felix and Ventuals.

Permissionless Market Deployment

As an aligned quote asset, builders can permissionlessly deploy reduced-fee spot markets and HIP-3 DEX perp markets denominated in USDH via the token index, 360.

Account Initialization

As a quote asset, protocols can use USDH to pay the $1 HyperCore account initialization fee when transferring the stablecoin to an uninitialized HyperCore address.
This enables seamless payments for end consumers without having to manage multiple stablecoin balances. Previously, all initialization fees were paid in USDC, irrespective of transferred assets.

Token Supply Architecture

At time of token deployment, USDH on HyperCore was initialized with a 100 billion token supply, atomically transferred to the token system address at time of genesis. In this way, all token transfers between HyperEVM and HyperCore remain fully collateralized 1:1 across the networks, with shared token balances. This is a best-practice, recommended approach for canonical HyperEVM ↔ HyperCore bridging.
You can verify the initial supply transfer via the official Hyperliquid explorer token info page.

Bridging Between Networks

Any transfers of the ERC-20 token on HyperEVM or the HIP-1 token on HyperCore to the system address will automatically reflect an according disbursement of USDH tokens on the counterpart network.
