HyperLiquid has multiple asset classes spread across different endpoints. This guide shows you how to discover everything you can trade and stream.
Asset classes
| Class | Count | ID range | Coin format | Endpoint |
|---|
| Perpetuals | 229 | 0-999 | BTC, ETH, SOL | /v2/meta |
| Spot pairs | 291 | 10000+ | @142, @1 | /v2/spot-meta |
| Builder DEXes | 330+ | varies by DEX | BTC, ETH (same names) | /v2/perp-dexes |
| Predictions (HIP-4) | varies | 100,000,000+ | #39890, #39891 | /v2/prediction/markets |
Perpetuals
The main 229 assets on HyperLiquid’s native perp exchange.
curl -H "x-api-key: YOUR_KEY" "https://hyper.polynode.dev/v2/meta"
Response includes every perp with its asset ID, max leverage, and funding parameters:
{
"universe": [
{"name": "BTC", "szDecimals": 5, "maxLeverage": 50},
{"name": "ETH", "szDecimals": 4, "maxLeverage": 50},
{"name": "SOL", "szDecimals": 2, "maxLeverage": 20}
]
}
Asset IDs are assigned by array position: BTC=0, ETH=1, etc.
Spot pairs
291 spot trading pairs.
curl -H "x-api-key: YOUR_KEY" "https://hyper.polynode.dev/v2/spot-meta"
Spot coins use the @ prefix followed by their token index: @1 is PURR, @142 is HYPE.
{
"tokens": [
{"name": "USDC", "index": 0, "szDecimals": 2},
{"name": "PURR", "index": 1, "szDecimals": 0}
],
"universe": [
{"name": "PURR/USDC", "tokens": [1, 0], "index": 10000}
]
}
Builder DEXes (HIP-3)
HyperLiquid allows anyone to deploy their own perpetual DEX on top of the L1. There are currently 9 builder DEXes with 330+ assets combined.
curl -H "x-api-key: YOUR_KEY" "https://hyper.polynode.dev/v2/perp-dexes"
| DEX | Code | Assets | Focus |
|---|
| HyperLiquid native | — | 229 | Main exchange |
| xyz / XYZ | xyz | 63 | Extended markets |
| flx / Felix | flx | 16 | Select markets |
| vntl / Ventuals | vntl | 14 | — |
| hyna / HyENA | hyna | 25 | — |
| km / Kinetiq | km | 23 | — |
| abcd / ABCDEx | abcd | 1 | — |
| cash / dreamcash | cash | 16 | — |
| para / Paragon | para | 3 | — |
Builder DEX assets use the same coin names as the native exchange (BTC, ETH, etc.) but trade on a different matching engine with separate order books. The DEX code prefix identifies which exchange.
To get details on a specific DEX:
curl -H "x-api-key: YOUR_KEY" "https://hyper.polynode.dev/v2/perp-dex-status?dex=xyz"
Prediction markets (HIP-4)
HyperLiquid’s prediction market system uses a unique asset ID scheme.
curl -H "x-api-key: YOUR_KEY" "https://hyper.polynode.dev/v2/prediction/markets"
Understanding prediction asset IDs
Each prediction market outcome has an encoding number:
encoding = 10 * outcome_id + side_index
outcome_id — the outcome being bet on
side_index — 0 for YES, 1 for NO
The coin name is # followed by the encoding: #39890 means outcome 3989, YES side.
The asset ID is 100,000,000 + encoding.
Subscribing to prediction events
{"action": "subscribe", "filters": {"assets": ["#39890"]}}
See Prediction Trading for the full trading flow.
Asset categories
Group assets by category (crypto, stocks, commodities, etc.):
curl -H "x-api-key: YOUR_KEY" "https://hyper.polynode.dev/v2/perp-categories"
Using asset IDs in subscriptions
You can filter the WebSocket stream by asset name or numeric ID:
{"action": "subscribe", "filters": {"assets": ["BTC"]}}
{"action": "subscribe", "filters": {"asset_ids": [0]}}
Both produce the same result for BTC. Asset names are case-insensitive.
