Bloomberg Adds Hyperliquid Data, but Trading Stays On-Chain

October 5, 2026

Bloomberg Terminal users can track more than 100 Hyperliquid contracts, while trading remains on the protocol’s own interface.

Key takeaways

  • Bloomberg Terminal now streams data for more than 100 Hyperliquid contracts.
  • The integration offers monitoring only, with no trading execution.
  • Hyperliquid sent $14.6 million in USDC through its AQAv2 mechanism on Oct. 3.
  • Its reported annualized revenue estimates range from $193 million to $880 million.

Bloomberg Terminal users can now follow more than 100 contracts on Hyperliquid, including assets tied to bitcoin, Nvidia, the S&P 500, oil, gold and EUR/USD. The integration provides data monitoring, not trade execution, Bloomberg spokesperson Michael McDonough said.

Hyperliquid distributed $14.6 million in USDC through its AQAv2 mechanism on Oct. 3. About $13.1 million went to the Hyperliquid Assistance Fund, which holds roughly 45 million HYPE tokens and carries out buybacks and burns.

The protocol also directs about 97% of net fees to the fund. Combined with the USDC yield, annual buyback capacity exceeds $900 million, according to the article. As of 18:10 UTC on Oct. 5, HYPE traded at $93.75, up 3.87% over the previous 24 hours.

Hyperliquid’s share of on-chain perpetual futures trading has fallen from about 70% in early 2026 to 30%–35%, as Aster, EdgeX and Lighter gain ground. Its petition to the CFTC seeks approval for regulated U.S. energy perpetual contracts, a proposal opposed by CME Group and ICE.

Estimates of annualized revenue vary widely: CoinDesk puts it at about $193 million, DefiLlama at $710.81 million and CF Benchmarks near $880 million. That spread leaves uncertainty about the protocol’s economic scale.
