What you need to know

ETH input identity and handling

Ethereum is classified as a native asset for this route. ETH uses a network-specific contract asset on Hyperliquid (HyperEVM). The recorded Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) representation uses 18 decimal places. Native ETH can fund both transfer value and gas on its selected network. If the source is WETH or another tokenized form, approval and unwrap or exchange logic differ.

WBTC output identity and receiving

Wrapped Bitcoin is classified as a wrapped asset for this route. WBTC uses a wrapped contract asset on Hyperliquid (HyperEVM). The recorded Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) representation uses 8 decimal places. WBTC arrives as a wrapper-contract token and must not be sent onward to a native Bitcoin address without an explicit unwrap or bridge path.

WBTC wrapped-token output check

WBTC is a custodial tokenized Bitcoin representation on smart-contract networks. Its transfers use token contracts and approvals rather than native Bitcoin inputs and outputs. On this route WBTC is the destination token on Hyperliquid (HyperEVM). Its token balance, approvals, and contract transfer behavior are separate from the native coin used for network gas.

Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) source execution

Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) is a L1 EVM network in the Hyperliquid ecosystem. HYPE pays source-side network gas on Hyperliquid (HyperEVM). EVM 0x account address; confirm the destination is HyperEVM A HyperEVM source spends HYPE for EVM gas; HyperCore balances, vault positions, and other Hyperliquid account states are not interchangeable inputs.

Mistakes specific to ETH Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) to WBTC Hyperliquid (HyperEVM)

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Hyperliquid (HyperEVM); using a destination that is not valid for Hyperliquid (HyperEVM); running out of HYPE before the source transaction is submitted; treating a wrapped token as the native gas asset. A HyperEVM source spends HYPE for EVM gas; HyperCore balances, vault positions, and other Hyperliquid account states are not interchangeable inputs. Native ETH can fund both transfer value and gas on its selected network. If the source is WETH or another tokenized form, approval and unwrap or exchange logic differ. A HyperEVM receipt belongs to its EVM execution state and uses HYPE for later gas; it should not be interpreted as a HyperCore position or vault balance. WBTC arrives as a wrapper-contract token and must not be sent onward to a native Bitcoin address without an explicit unwrap or bridge path.

Private Route for ETH → WBTC

Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this ETH on Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) to WBTC on Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) path, Private Route is intended to reduce the direct visible relationship between activity around the source-side EVM 0x account address; confirm the destination is HyperEVM and destination-side EVM 0x account address; confirm the destination is HyperEVM; it does not hide either chain's public records.
