PANews reported on March 9th, citing Finance Feeds, that decentralized derivatives exchange Hyperliquid stated that 12 of its top 20 markets by trading volume are HIP-3 assets linked to indices and commodities. HIP-3 is an improvement proposal put forward by Hyperliquid that allows creators to deploy perpetual futures markets for a wide range of assets using external price sources, including macroeconomic instruments such as commodities and stock indices. This data indicates growing interest in real-world asset exposure on the platform, with traders seeking on-chain access to traditional financial markets through perpetual contracts.
