Hyperliquid's HIP-3 silver perpetuals demonstrated resilience during a recent silver market crash, outperforming CME's COMEX in certain aspects. Before the selloff, Hyperliquid offered tighter spreads for small trades compared to COMEX, despite having thinner market depth. During the crash, both platforms experienced widened spreads, but Hyperliquid's dislocations were brief and quickly mean-reverted.
As silver prices plummeted by 31% amid global trading activity, Hyperliquid's spreads expanded 2.1 times, while COMEX saw a 1.6 times increase. Despite execution quality degrading more on Hyperliquid, the platform managed to handle heavy weekend trading volumes after COMEX closed, processing 175,000 trades worth $257 million. Hyperliquid's ability to maintain operations over the weekend and align prices with COMEX upon reopening underscored its capability as a continuous trading venue.
