Hypernova Launches Onchain Prop-Trading Platform on Arbitrum

Hypernova records prop-trading rules, reserves and payouts on Arbitrum smart contracts while keeping trade execution offchain against Hyperliquid markets.

Hypernova Records Prop-Trading Account Rules and Payouts on Arbitrum

Hypernova launched a proprietary trading platform that stores account rules, reserves and payout obligations in smart contracts on Arbitrum.

Founders Anar Bayramov, formerly of RockawayX, and Nijat Bakhshaliyev, formerly of Coinbase, raised a $3 million pre-seed round led by Lemniscap with participation from Very Early Ventures, CMS Holdings and Hyperliquid-linked investors.

The team includes alumni from Citadel, Amazon, IBM and N26.

Mechanics and Limits

Traders keep 80 percent of profits under the program. The company reports more than $550,000 paid to traders in 110 countries and more than $2 billion in simulated volume, all figures supplied by Hypernova and unverified by third parties.

Payouts settle from a publicly visible wallet that began with $1 million. Hypernova states average settlement time after smart-contract verification is 6.1 seconds.

Trading execution remains offchain and simulated against live Hyperliquid markets. The onchain layer covers only account parameters and payouts.

A longer-term plan to route selected traders into real markets with firm capital is stated as an objective but is not yet operational. Wallet balances and onchain records do not verify the offchain execution engine or risk-model accuracy.
