Every blockchain and exchange has made a false tradeoff: you could have a purpose-built trading engine, or you could have a generalized app layer. You could not have both, at scale, in one coherent user experience.
For Hyperliquid power users, this trade-off manifests as fragmented workflows across HyperCore and HyperEVM.
Solving this problem enables DeFi-level innovation on NASDAQ-level liquidity.
In June 2025, Hyperliquid introduced CoreWriter to the HyperEVM, enabling developers to build on top of a high-performance order book. The key innovation was to open up the world of programmable financial applications on top of Hyperliquid’s performant orderbook without slowing it down.
HyperEVM made HyperCore programmable, but no application has meaningfully sewn the connection between the two. What Hyperliquid needs is not more developer tooling or infrastructure, but a fundamental repositioning of the Hyperliquid trader’s home: the Account.
Introducing Valantis Prime
Housing all of Finance starts with redefining the Account as the connective tissue across HyperEVM and HyperCore. Valantis Prime connects fragmented experiences on Hyperliquid into one account-level command center.
Valantis Prime is a smart contract account that lives across HyperEVM and HyperCore, integrating actions on both surfaces and automating workflows between them. The result is a connective tissue across a user’s DeFi workflows, with their account as the command center.
Before this model, actions across HyperCore and HyperEVM could not be connected in one continuous user flow. Strategies that combine yield and collateral on HyperEVM with spot and perps trading on HyperCore remained fragmented and manual, including core yield sources like BLP, Staking, and HLP.
Today, most actions are still manual and disconnected. Users move between two surfaces, and many HyperCore actions remain fixed and hard to customize. Valantis Prime will serve as the command center of the Hyperliquid user’s shared HyperCore and HyperEVM account; making Hyperliquid programmable across the entire stack from a single account interface.
Finance’s Abstraction Layer
Prime Brokers in traditional finance sit at the top of the stack, acting as the single control plane for previously fragmented financial services: credit financing, asset custody, and trading execution. Users of a Prime Broker have the full financial surface available from a single account, often gaining access to abstractions that combine multiple services in single experiences.
Hyperliquid solved the programmable trading engine problem by isolating its parts. Because HyperEVM and HyperCore are separate at the base layer, the missing piece is an account layer on top that makes both feel like one financial surface.
Valantis Prime will offer app store-like integrations directly into a user’s account. That account can aggregate services, new order types, and workflow automations across HyperEVM and HyperCore while users maintain control, abstracting complexity without giving up sovereignty.
Prime DCA
Prime DCA is the first product expression of this model, focused on keeping capital productive between execution decisions. Valantis Prime will roll out progressively, starting with curated cross-HyperEVM/HyperCore strategy automations through Prime DCA.
Prime DCA connects HyperEVM yields from Hyperlend, Felix, HypurrFi, STEX, and stHYPE to idle spot trading balances for a new Spot DCA order type.
Users can whitelist Valantis Agents with narrow permissions so specific steps can run automatically. Those steps can include withdrawing from yield sources on HyperEVM, moving capital to HyperCore, and placing spot buys/sells below a limit price on a cadence, making long-term investing simple and yield-bearing.
Programming HyperCore Accounts
Valantis Prime enables a programmable experience of using HyperCore. This enables new order types and cross-surface workflows while funds remain in user control.
Users can turn HyperCore actions into automations through smart contracts. In practice, this means all 15 CoreWriter actions and a growing set of HyperEVM actions can be linked into one workflow inside an EVM wallet.
Funds stay in a user’s wallet, and agent automations are whitelisted to abstract away DeFi workflow complexity. The cross-account programming engine will expand its integrations over time to automate away the friction of using Hyperliquid across EVM and Core.
HYPE is the lifeblood for all activity on Hyperliquid. Programmable Hyperliquid accounts are the critical path to fulfilling the Exodia Thesis.
Prime DCA, the MVP of Valantis Prime, will be made available to select users over the coming weeks before being opened up to the public. From there, the universe of available order types, strategies, stHYPE integrations, and use cases for Hyperliquid will grow limitless.
