Hyperliquid is already processing billions of dollars in trades per day and has solidified itself as a go-to destination for onchain degens looking to leverage trade crypto tokens.

Its HYPE airdrop last December stunned industry observers with lucrative six-figure paydays for many participants. Now, Hyperliquid is leveling up with the HyperEVM, a general-purpose blockchain that allows developers to innovate on Hyperliquid’s existing offerings.

And the best part? The majority of HyperEVM protocols are tokenless, meaning airdrop rewards could be on the way for early network users! If you missed the first Hyperliquid airdrop, don’t sleep on this list of top drop opps. 👇
