SpaceX IPO drives Hyperliquid trading frenzy, SPCX perpetual sees $1.4 billion in daily volume

OdailyOdaily reported that after SpaceX was listed on Nasdaq last Friday at a valuation of over $1.7 trillion, trading volume surged for the SpaceX-related HIP-3 perpetual contract SPCX on Hyperliquid. Data shows that the xyz:SPCX trading pair reached a daily turnover of $1.4 billion, accounting for 30% of all HIP-3 trading volume that day.In comparison, during the three weeks before the SpaceX IPO, the average daily trading volume of xyz:SPCX was only about $26 million, indicating that the IPO event significantly amplified trading activity for on-chain equity-linked derivatives.Looking at the broader HIP-3 ecosystem, the cumulative turnover for equity-linked perpetual contracts in the first half of June has already exceeded $18.8 billion, significantly higher than the combined $7.66 billion for crude oil and Brent crude oil perpetual contracts.This suggests that as highly anticipated stocks like SpaceX enter the on-chain trading arena, platforms such as Hyperliquid are becoming key gateways for crypto users to gain exposure to traditional assets, with activity in equity perpetual contracts already surpassing that of some traditional commodity markets.
