The Hyperliquid ecosystem landed on the French Riviera

EthCC[9] brought the Ethereum community to Cannes, and HypeGlobal brought the Hyperliquid ecosystem with it.

HYPE Cannes was a curated evening meetup for the people building and trading on Hyperliquid. No keynotes. No pitch decks. Just real conversations, cold drinks, and the projects shaping the Hyperliquid ecosystem, live at their Builder Stations.

The numbers

1,000+ sign-ups for 150 spots. The demand for Hyperliquid events in Europe was massive. First come, first served entry meant the venue was packed from doors open to close.
