Elysium mainnet launches November 9: A new era for Hyperliquid
Elysium mainnet launches November 9. Explore Kinetiq’s Layer 2 for Hyperliquid, its builder revenue share, and the live testnet ahead of the launch.
Elysium mainnet launches on November 9, 2026.
Kinetiq’s Layer 2 for Hyperliquid now has a mainnet date. With the testnet already available, builders and users can explore the network ahead of its next stage.
A Layer 2 built for Hyperliquid
Elysium is a high-performance, general-purpose Layer 2 purpose-built for the Hyperliquid ecosystem.
Its focus is expanding what developers can build around Hyperliquid: spot trading venues, automated market-making systems, token launch infrastructure, and other onchain financial applications.
The goal is not simply to offer another place to deploy contracts. It is to give applications more execution capacity while keeping their activity connected to the wider Hyperliquid economy.
The Elysium documentation provides the starting point for teams evaluating the network and preparing their integrations.
Builders participate in network growth
Performance is only part of the design.
Elysium has committed 25% of sequencer revenue to builders whose applications drive usage of its blockspace, as outlined in its original announcement.
That allocation creates a potential recurring source of funding for applications, which can support user incentives, rebates, liquidity programs, and new product mechanics.
The intended alignment is straightforward: applications bring activity to Elysium, and a share of the resulting network revenue flows back to builders.
Explore Elysium before mainnet
You do not need to wait until November 9 to get familiar with the network.
The Elysium testnet explorer is already available to inspect blocks, transactions, and deployed contracts. Developers can use the documentation to review the architecture and begin preparing their applications.
For users, this is an opportunity to follow what teams are building before mainnet. For developers, it is time to test integrations and identify what needs to be ready for production.
The announcement confirms the mainnet date, not a complete list of applications or features available on day one.
e/acc: Elysium Accelerates
Elysium Accelerates captures the ambition behind the network: expanding what can be built on Hyperliquid and giving builders an economic reason to build it.
Mainnet is the next step. The applications, liquidity, and users that follow will determine what that infrastructure becomes.
See you on Elysium mainnet.
