Hyperliquid has announced a strategic proposal, HIP-4, to enter the prediction market through a collaboration with Kalshi, a CFTC-regulated prediction market in the US. This initiative marks Hyperliquid's transition from a perpetual contract exchange to a modular financial infrastructure provider. The proposal, co-authored by John Wang of Kalshi, aims to merge decentralized investment institutions with centralized prediction market operators. Hyperliquid, which commands 80% of the on-chain perpetual contract market, plans to utilize its advanced trading technology and extensive user base to penetrate the prediction market. The partnership with Kalshi is expected to enhance Hyperliquid's regulatory compliance and market credibility. The proposal introduces 'event perpetual contracts' to tackle technical challenges in prediction markets, such as maintaining continuous price feeds and mitigating market manipulation risks.
