Latin American cryptocurrency exchange Bitso has integrated decentralized derivatives protocol Hyperliquid, opening on-chain perpetual futures trading to its community of over 10 million users. Hyperliquid founder Jeff Yan confirmed the deployment, which allows traders to access decentralized financial markets without transferring funds away from the main exchange interface.
The feature operates through Bitso Alpha, where users can trade more than 200 perpetual futures markets spanning cryptocurrencies, stock indices, gold, and foreign exchange pairs. All orders execute on the Hyperliquid decentralized exchange using self-custodial wallets that users fund directly from their standard Bitso accounts. The system offers positions with up to 50x leverage across digital assets, equities, and commodities.
Bitso operates as a primary regional exchange across Latin America, providing fiat gateways and trading services for consumer and corporate accounts. Hyperliquid functions as an order-book protocol designed specifically for perpetual trading, handling settlement on-chain while delivering execution speeds comparable to centralized platforms.
Connecting centralized exchange balances to decentralized perpetual liquidity removes the technical steps usually required to set up Web3 wallets and bridge funds across networks. Industry observers will watch total derivative volumes on Bitso Alpha in the coming months to assess whether Latin American retail traders adopt on-chain perpetual products when integrated directly into traditional exchange apps.
