Restaking is a new primitive that creates a liquid venue to earn from HYPE’s utility on HyperCore. Institutions building on Hyperliquid pay stHYPE Protocol to access the underlying utility of restaked HYPE—lowering trading fees for Traders, granting the right to deploy markets for Deployers. Passive holders can now monetize HYPE utility as a liquid yield instrument—a market that previously was private, inefficient, and illiquid.
How it works
- Hold stHYPE Stake HYPE on HyperEVM and receive stHYPE at app.valantis.xyz/staking.
- Deposit stHYPE into stHYPE Restaking app.valantis.xyz/restaking
- Earn Your stHYPE keeps Hyperliquid’s base staking yield and collects partner payments, paid daily in HYPE.
- Withdraw Restakers have a 14-day cooldown to convert their restaked position back into stHYPE. Withdrawals still earn base staking yield while they are processed, and can be cancelled by you at any time to keep earning restaking yield.
Partners get the utility of the stake (a fee tier, deployer eligibility) without the ability to sell, collateralize, borrow, or mix staked assets. Your HYPE stays staked on HyperCore in stHYPE protocol accounts the whole time. Partners fund each week’s HYPE payments into the Restaking Contract in advance; restakers earn extra rewards and staking yield daily.
Today, Valantis is announcing several new partnerships intended to raise the base rate of HYPE far beyond Staking Yield.
Where the yield comes from
Live now, yield comes from stHYPE securing the USDe Quote Asset on HyperCore.
stHYPE secures the USDe quote asset on HyperCore. Effective today, USDe yield now rewards restakers an additional 10 HYPE per day through December 2028. This brings restaking yield to the current 10%—which begins dilution around 50,000 HYPE in TVL.

Today, we are announcing two new flagship partnerships. Valantis has witnessed first-hand the demand for accessing stHYPE’s underlying utility—restaking has been built to scale into that demand while ensuring value is passed back to stHYPE holders.
#1 - Trading Fee Discounts revenue
Announcing our first Institutional Trader on Valantis Prime.
A top Hyperliquid wallet by volume associated with a large firm is becoming our first partner for Valantis Prime Institutional. They will pay back a portion of Trading Fee savings to restakers in exchange for accessing a Platinum tier Staking Discount. stHYPE can recall the stake for withdrawals on 7 days’ notice.
This partnership expects to bring significant and diversified yield to restakers, with low trade-off on liquidity or opportunity cost. We are excited to share more details soon.
Start date: TBD.
#2 - HIP-4 Deployer: Outcome revenue
Announcing our first HIP-4 Partner for stHYPE.
A HIP-4 deployer, to be named closer to launch, proposes to pay restakers 3% APY in HYPE rewards on top of staking yield, plus a share of its deployer fees, in exchange for stHYPE Protocol providing 500,000 HYPE to the Deployer Staking Balance.
The deployer is committed to aligning with stHYPE holders. $1,000,000 of slashing protection will be provided by the deployer and deployer self-stake.
An allocation can only be made once liquidity properties are satisfied. Final terms will be communicated before then. A minimum 21-day notice will be provided before any stake can be delegated to a deployer.
