Analyst: Kraken May Become One of the First Centralized Exchanges to Test Hyperliquid's HIP-3 Compliant Deployment
Odaily News, Blockworks analyst Shaunda Devens stated on the X platform that Kraken may be testing Hyperliquid's HIP-3 (Builder-Deployed Perpetuals) new compliant deployment feature, potentially becoming one of the first centralized exchanges to explore this mechanism. BlockworksData shows that a deployer named "Kraken HIP-3 test DEX" has enabled permission management functionality (Star gating) on the Hyperliquid testnet and went live for testing on August 19. Currently, this test DEX has completed whitelist settings for 10 wallets, tested 3 of the 5 compliance control features, and registered a "Kraken Exchange Validator."Shaunda Devens noted that Hyperliquid has been continuously adding testnet features to support regulatory-compliant HIP-3 deployments, including whitelist management, canceling user orders, closing positions via reduce-only orders, and moving collateral. These capabilities are similar to the risk control mechanisms required by traditional financial institutions' compliant trading platforms.Although this is still in the testing phase, and any user could deploy a test DEX with a similar name, making it impossible to confirm it definitively belongs to Kraken, combined with Hyperliquid's recent expansion of xStocks functionality and Kraken's parent company Payward's involvement in related business initiatives, analysts believe Kraken may be testing HyperCore's new infrastructure targeting institutional and compliant markets.HIP-3 is a third-party deployed perpetual contract market framework introduced by Hyperliquid, allowing eligible developers to create independent perpetual trading markets on HyperCore's order book infrastructure. It is considered a key upgrade direction for Hyperliquid to expand into traditional assets and institutional trading scenarios. If large compliant exchanges like Kraken enter the HIP-3 ecosystem, it could further drive the integration of on-chain derivatives markets with traditional financial trading systems.
