The highly anticipated NFT launch and USDH rollout highlight Dex’s growing influence.
Decentralized Exchange Hyperliquid’s Hypurr Nonfungible Token (NFT) collection is changing hands on Monday, September 29th for around $55,000. This is one day after deployment on HypereVM, the Layer 1 (L1) blockchain of Ecosystem.
Currently, the 4,600 NFT collection has floor prices of 1,250 hype ($55,000) and the top offer is 1,161 hype ($52,000). Meanwhile, its total volume of 24 hours reached 1.5 million hype, or around $70 million. According to Coingecko, Hype is currently up 6.3% at $46.94.
According to OpenSea data, around 11% of the collection are listed, with 3,955 unique owners making up about 86% of the total supply. Of the 4,600 NFTs in the collection, 4,313 were assigned to Genesis Event participants, 144 to HyperFoundation, and 143 to core contributors, including HyperLiquid Labs and NFT artists.
However, shortly after Airdrop, the threat actor reportedly stole eight infant NFTs from the breached wallet, earning about $400,000, according to blockchain analyst Zachxbt, who shared the news on Telegram. Nevertheless, the enthusiasm for the NFT collection is strong.
Even before its official launch, Hypurr NFTS traded between $30,000 and $60,000 in the OTC market throughout much of 2025, attracting strong interest by September 19th.
The launch of Hypurr NFT highlights Hyperliquid’s efforts to reward early supporters, strengthen community engagement and expand the ecosystem through new features.
“The goal of the Hypurr NFT Collection is that the Hyper Foundation, posted to X, captured the various moods, hobbies, tastes and quirks of the declining groups that Hyper Foundation was portrayed.
Currently, high lipids are locked at a total value per defilama (TVL) of $5.86 billion. Meanwhile, high lipid L1 boasts a TVL of $2.2 billion.
Continuous expansion
The launch of the Hypurr NFT coincides with the ongoing expansion of the ecosystem of Hyperliquid. Most recently, the project deployed native Stablecoin USDH through the native market after successful bids to develop the asset.
Currently, Hyperliquid’s first dollar asset, USDH, has a market capitalization of $1.44 million.
Also, earlier this summer, Liquid made a headline early this summer as previously reported Defiant highlighted its increased influence by processing more Bitcoin (BTC) volumes on a single weekend than both Coinbase and Bybit.
The high lipids fired HypereVM in February. At the time, the Hyper Foundation called it “a big step towards its vision of housing all its funds by bringing general purpose programmerity to Hyperliquid’s performance financial system.”
