Hyperliquid’s Native Stablecoin USDH Hits Over $2M Trading Volume After Debut
USDH, backed by cash and short-term U.S. Treasuries, saw over $15 million minted in 24 hours, aiming to reduce reliance on external stablecoins and boost Hyperliquid liquidity.
- On September 23, Hyperliquid launched USDH after Native Markets won issuance rights, generating over $2 million in trading volume within hours.
- To cut dependency on external stablecoins, Hyperliquid launched a native token to reduce reliance on Circle's USDC, which accounts for over 90% of deposits, following bids from Paxos and Frax Finance beginning Sept. 5.
- Technically, USDH runs on HyperEVM and is listed first as a USDH/USDC spot pair on HyperCore; reserves are backed by cash and short-dated U.S. Treasuries managed via Stripe's Bridge and BlackRock, with reserve yield split 50-50 to support HYPE token buybacks and the Hyperliquid Assistance Fund.
- Operationally, the debut imposed single-order limit 800 and stressed settlement systems, while pre-minting produced 15 million USDH and launch price held near $0.99960.
- Facing rivals that process massive volumes, Hyperliquid processed $330 billion in July with a small team while governance concerns raised by Dragonfly partner Haseeb Qureshi emerge amid a phased rollout over the coming months.
