Liquid staking

Validator distribution

Our liquid staking token, kHYPE, is built to make staking safer, more efficient, and more decentralized — both for users and for the network.

Why validators matters

Staking should be simple and smart. With kHYPE:

  • Collect all staking rewards passively
  • Your stake is spread across the best validators
  • No manual validator selection required + continuous optimization of delegation
  • Everything happens automatically — no action needed from you
  • And it’s all transparent and on-chain
kHYPE turns staking into a passive, professional-grade experience — with no extra work required from users.

How it works

Our tools watch how validators perform in real-time. They rank each validator based on how well they’re performing.

This rank directly affects how we delegate stake. We rebalance automatically, so stake is always going to the top-performing validators — not just once, but continuously.

This means:

  • You don’t need to pick validators manually
  • Your stake avoids underperforming or risky validators
  • Your staked is only directed to the best performing validators

How we choose validators

Validators are ranked using five key categories:

  • Reliability – Are they online, responsive, and consistently producing blocks?
  • Security – Have they been slashed? Are their systems safe and well-managed
  • Economics – Do they offer fair fees and stable rewards?
  • Governance – Do they vote on proposals and stay active in the network?
  • Longevity – How long have they been active, and do they keep their software up to date?

We combine all of this into one score to get a full picture of how trustworthy and useful each validator is.

Smart rebalancing system

Validator performance evolves. kHYPE ensures your stake does too.

Performance monitoring

  • 24/7 scoring updates
  • Detection of underperformance or slashing
  • Automated alerts and score adjustments

Delegation adjustments

  • Gradual reallocation to top-performing validators
  • Removal of degraded validators
  • Addition of new, high-potential entrants

Rebalancing frequency

  • Triggered by significant score changes
  • Emergency rebalancing for critical validator failure
  • Designed to minimize disruption while optimizing yield and safety

Risk controls

  • Stake never over-concentrated
  • Geographic and operator diversity enforced
  • Prioritization of decentralization alongside performance

Built for a growing ecosystem

Hyperliquid is still early — the validator set, network activity, and available data are evolving fast.

Because of that, the way we score and delegate will also evolve over time. kHYPE is built to grow with the network. We’re actively working with other teams and validators across the ecosystem to improve the dataset, add more context, and keep our system fully up to date.

As Hyperliquid matures, so will our validator insights — making kHYPE even smarter, safer, and more accurate over time.
