About
Kinetiq is a decentralized finance protocol built on the Hyperliquid blockchain network that provides liquid staking solutions and decentralized trading infrastructure. The protocol enables users to stake native HYPE tokens to receive kHYPE, a liquid staking derivative that earns staking yields while remaining usable across decentralized finance applications. Kinetiq also operates Markets.xyz, a perpetual futures trading platform powered by Hyperliquid that allows continuous trading of traditional asset classes, including equities, market indices, foreign currencies, and commodities. Additionally, the project provides institutional-grade staking infrastructure called iHYPE with custody integration and automated validator scoring and stake delegation systems.
