Trading Everything on Hyperliquid | Perps.fun Co-Founder Parker

Parker, co-founder of perps.fun, joins the Insilico Terminal Podcast to discuss building the first HIP-3 launchpad and opening Hyperliquid market creation to teams outside the existing deployer structure.  We cover why perps.fun pivoted from building a trading terminal, how new markets are vetted, fee sharing and market ownership, exotic and long-tail perps, sourcing liquidity, oracle and funding design, the Kinetiq partnership, and why permissionless perp creation comes with serious risks.  We also get into the wider Hyperliquid ecosystem: HIP-3 market concentration, HIP-4, regulation, institutional adoption, Trade XYZ, competition between DEXs, and the long-term vision of being able to trade wherever the volatility goes.00:00 What is perps.fun?
