Bloomberg used Hyperliquid to track oil during Iran attacks
During the Iran escalation, Bloomberg reportedly referenced prices on Hyperliquid to track oil moves because most traditional markets were closed.
Not CME futures. Not a bank desk. A crypto-native venue.
The reason is simple. When the event hit on a Sunday, Hyperliquid was one of the few places with live liquidity and continuous trading.
Activity is already expanding beyond crypto:
➡️ Silver became the #2 asset by volume on Hyperliquid today, behind BTC
➡️ Just three months ago it didn’t exist in crypto markets
The idea gaining traction is straightforward: if assets trade 24/7 with deep liquidity, traditional market hours start to matter less.
