Bitso Integrates Hyperliquid, Bringing On-Chain Perpetual Trading to More Than 10 Million Users

Bitso Alpha integrates Hyperliquid, giving more than 10 million Latin American exchange users access to over 200 on-chain perpetual futures markets.

Latin American cryptocurrency exchange Bitso has integrated the Hyperliquid trading platform, giving its more than 10 million users access to on-chain perpetual futures markets directly through its existing platform. The integration allows customers to trade more than 200 perpetual markets through Bitso Alpha, with transactions executed on Hyperliquid.

The announcement was made by Wu Blockchain Hyperliquid founder Jeff Yan, marking an expansion of the decentralized derivatives platform's accessibility through an established cryptocurrency exchange serving the Latin American market.

Under the integration, Bitso users can access perpetual futures without leaving the exchange's platform. The available markets extend beyond cryptocurrencies, also covering stock indices, gold and foreign exchange (forex). This provides access to a broader range of trading instruments through a single interface.

Bitso Alpha Adds More Than 200 Perpetual Markets

The integration is available through Bitso Alpha, the exchange's trading platform. Users can access more than 200 perpetual markets, while the underlying trades are executed on Hyperliquid's infrastructure.

Perpetual futures are derivatives contracts that allow traders to gain exposure to an asset's price movements without holding the underlying asset directly. Unlike conventional futures contracts, perpetual contracts do not have a fixed expiration date.

By connecting Bitso Alpha with Hyperliquid, the integration brings this type of on-chain derivatives trading into an existing centralized exchange environment. Users can access the supported markets without needing to leave Bitso's platform to trade through a separate interface.

The range of available instruments is also notable. Alongside cryptocurrency markets, Bitso Alpha provides access to perpetual contracts linked to stock indices, gold and forex. These categories broaden the selection beyond digital assets and give users access to different types of financial markets through the same integration.

Hyperliquid Expands Its Exchange Reach in Latin America

Bitso's user base of more than 10 million makes the integration a significant distribution development for Hyperliquid. Rather than requiring users to access the decentralized trading platform independently, the arrangement connects its trading infrastructure with an established regional exchange.

For Bitso, the addition expands the range of trading products available through Bitso Alpha by incorporating perpetual markets executed on an external on-chain platform. The integration also connects the exchange's existing customer base with Hyperliquid's derivatives market infrastructure.

Jeff Yan's announcement confirms the connection between the two platforms, with Hyperliquid handling trade execution while Bitso provides access through its existing interface.

The rollout covers more than 200 perpetual markets across cryptocurrencies, stock indices, gold and forex, making the integration broader than a cryptocurrency-only derivatives offering. Bitso's more than 10 million users can access these markets through Bitso Alpha without leaving the platform.
