Institutional users can offset their decentralized derivatives exposures against positions in traditional markets already supported by Ripple Prime (foreign exchange, fixed income, and over-the-counter swaps).
Hyperliquid has quickly become the largest decentralized perpetual contract trading platform. It boasts over $5 billion in open interest and regularly exceeds $200 billion in monthly trading volume.
Meanwhile, Ripple Prime itself is a relatively new powerhouse in the institutional space. The platform officially launched in late 2025 following Ripple’s massive $1.25 billion acquisition of prime brokerage firm Hidden Road.
Ripple Prime continues to position itself as the bridge between legacy financial systems and the decentralized economy, which appears to be the company's new focus.
