FAQ
Common questions about Hedgepit and HIP-4.
Is Hedgepit affiliated with Hyperliquid?#
No. Hedgepit is an independent frontend that uses Hyperliquid's public APIs. We are not the official Hyperliquid team and we do not custody funds — all signing happens in your browser against the Hyperliquid L1.
What chains does the wallet need to support?#
HyperEVM (chain id 999 mainnet, 998 testnet) for ERC-20 balances and the deposit / withdraw flow. The L1 trading actions are signed off-chain by your in-browser agent wallet and submitted via the Hyperliquid REST API.
Why does it ask for two signatures on the first trade?#
The first signature authorises a local agent keypair to sign your subsequent L1 actions; the second authorises the builder fee charged on close / settle. Both are one-time; after that, trading is one click per order.
How do you make money?#
Hedgepit attaches a builder code to every order. Hyperliquid pays builder fees on close, burn, and settle events — not on opens. The per-order rate is bounded by the ceiling you approve at setup.
Can I see what I'm paying in fees before I submit?#
Yes — the execution rail's "Fees + funding (est.)" row shows the all-in cost and a per-component breakdown on hover: builder fee on each leg, HL's perp taker fee (with the resolved pair tier — standard / aligned / stable), and a predicted funding estimate over the remaining settlement window. The same total is deducted from the "Max loss after hedge" headline, so the worst-case number is fee-aware. See the workstation page for the full layout.
Are my funds custodied by Hedgepit?#
No. Deposits go directly to Hyperliquid's bridge contract on HyperEVM and the corresponding HyperCore account. The agent keypair in your browser can sign trading actions (orders, cancels, leverage) but cannot move funds — every withdrawal back to HyperEVM is signed by your master wallet, and any external EVM transfer is also a master-signed transaction.
What happens if Hedgepit goes offline?#
Your positions, balances, and any pending orders live on Hyperliquid, not on Hedgepit. You can always cancel orders or close positions directly via app.hyperliquid.xyz or any other Hyperliquid frontend.
