Getting Started

What you need before placing your first trade — wallet, USDC, and a working mental model of HIP-4.

You will need three things to trade on Hedgepit:

  1. A wallet that supports HyperEVM (chain id 999). Rabby, MetaMask, and any WalletConnect-compatible wallet work.
  2. USDC on HyperEVM — bridged from Arbitrum or another chain via the Hyperliquid bridge.
  3. About 60 seconds for the one-time agent + builder-fee approvals on first trade.

How HIP-4 differs from Polymarket-style markets#

HIP-4 markets clear on Hyperliquid's orderbook with maker / taker price-time priority, like a perpetual or spot pair — not against a parimutuel pool. That means:

  • Tight spreads when there is liquidity, but no guaranteed counterparty.
  • Sizing is set in shares, not "buy $X of YES" — the minimum order is calculated from the current price (see outcome-markets / min order).
  • A position can be partially filled if the book is thin.
