Hyperliquid News Today: Bitget Wallet Simplifies DeFi Access for 80 Million Users Through HyperEVM Integration

Bitget Wallet, a leading self-custody crypto wallet serving more than 80 million users, has now fully incorporated HyperEVM—the smart contract layer of the Hyperliquid Layer-1 blockchain that is compatible with Ethereum. This milestone, revealed in late October 2025, significantly broadens user access to decentralized finance (DeFi) networks. With this update, users can effortlessly manage cross-chain transactions, utilize DeFi services, and access $HYPE token features all within the

platform. Through this integration, Bitget’s vast user base is now linked to Hyperliquid’s ecosystem, which boasts $5 billion in total value locked (TVL) and merges advanced trading technology with decentralized governance.

, a decentralized exchange (DEX) known for its high-speed performance, has emerged as a rival to centralized exchanges by providing on-chain order books and swift trading via its HyperCore engine. The addition of the HyperEVM layer brings smart contract functionality, enabling DeFi protocols and decentralized apps (dApps) to leverage Hyperliquid’s liquidity without causing fragmentation. Bitget Wallet users can now quickly add the HyperEVM network, move assets using deBridge, and trade through aggregators like LiquidLaunch. There is also a dedicated section for HyperEVM-based dApps, streamlining onboarding and making multi-chain operations easier—addressing a common challenge in DeFi adoption.

Jamie Elkaleh, Bitget Wallet’s Chief Marketing Officer, highlighted the importance of this development: "We aim to make it easier for users to access one of the fastest-expanding ecosystems in crypto. By fully integrating HyperEVM, we empower self-custody users to interact with a robust infrastructure for trading, programmable finance, and cross-chain operations, all while maintaining the ease of use and security that are central to our mission." Bitget Wallet’s compatibility with over 130 blockchains and its user protection fund exceeding $700 million further reinforce its position as a connector between everyday users and institutional-grade blockchain systems.

Since its debut in 2023, Hyperliquid’s network has experienced rapid expansion, handling more than $1.5 trillion in trades and reaching $4.85 billion in TVL, as reported by

. The platform’s emphasis on deep liquidity and decentralized decision-making, powered by the $HYPE token, has drawn both developers and traders looking for alternatives to centralized exchanges. Bitget’s latest integration reflects the industry’s movement toward greater interoperability, with cross-chain capabilities becoming essential for the future growth of DeFi.

Looking ahead, new features such as perpetual trading, contract integration, and expanded DeFi modules are set to further strengthen this partnership, delivering advanced solutions to self-custody users. These enhancements could establish Bitget Wallet as a primary entry point for broader adoption of on-chain finance, especially as Hyperliquid’s vision of an "Everything Exchange"—covering trading, lending, staking, and tokenized real-world assets—continues to evolve.
