Key takeaways

- 2Listing includes KRW, BTC and USDT trading pairs
Upbit said on Thursday it will list HYPE, the native token of Hyperliquid, on its platform. Trading is set to start on 10 November at 15:00 KST (06:00 UTC).
The token will be available in KRW, BTC and USDT markets. Upbit will support spot trading of HYPE against the Korean won, Bitcoin and the Tether stablecoin. The exchange said the listing follows its strategy to broaden token offerings.
Upbit is South Korea’s biggest crypto exchange by trading volume and operates a regulated platform for fiat‑crypto pairs. Hyperliquid runs a decentralized perpetual futures protocol that currently leads the market in volume, and HYPE is used for fee discounts and governance on that platform. Listing the token gives Korean users a direct on‑ramp to Hyperliquid’s products.
The move could boost HYPE’s liquidity and expose Korean traders to decentralized perpetual contracts. It also signals Upbit’s intent to capture demand for advanced derivatives. Traders will watch order‑book depth and volume in the first weeks, and regulators may monitor cross‑border token listings.
