How HypurrCollective Works

HypurrCollective is built on community-driven collaboration. It brings together builders, validators, traders, and supporters who each contribute in different ways. Some members run critical infrastructure, others focus on creating educational content or research, while many develop new products or provide funding to help promising projects grow.

Membership is open to anyone interested in supporting Hyperliquid, but core membership is curated. To join the core group, you need either a referral from an existing member or clear proof of deep involvement in the Hyperliquid ecosystem. This approach keeps the collective focused, high-quality, and committed to its goals.

All efforts revolve around shared goals: making Hyperliquid more secure, more liquid, and more accessible to everyone. Whether it’s improving the trading experience, launching new protocols, or educating the community, every initiative aims to strengthen the ecosystem as a whole.

The collective also prioritizes trusted infrastructure. Thanks to partnerships with platforms like StakeWithUs and DripTrade, HypurrCollective runs reliable technology that powers staking, validator operations, and fully on-chain OTC trading for NFTs.

Participation comes with meaningful rewards and incentives. Members and stakers often get early access to new releases, special airdrops, and exclusive events. Staking through the collective also earns rewards and can qualify participants for Nansen points and other perks.

Finally, HypurrCollective supports continuous learning and growth. Regular weekly recaps, research reports, and in-depth guides keep everyone up to date and help the community stay engaged with the latest developments across Hyperliquid.
