Swap safety

Is Hyperliquid safe to use?

A trader wants to swap on Hyperliquid. They search for it, click the first result, connect their wallet — and only later realise the site was a look-alike of hyperliquid.xyz. The signature they approved wasn't a swap. It was a drainer. This exact pattern repeats thousands of times a month.

Is Hyperliquid itself safe?

Yes — the real Hyperliquid is a well-known perp DEX on Hyperliquid. The danger is almost never the protocol itself; it's fake copies of it and the signatures malicious sites ask you to approve. The only official domain is hyperliquid.xyz.

The real risk: fake Hyperliquid sites

Scammers clone the Hyperliquid interface pixel-for-pixel on look-alike domains, then buy ads and post links so their fake ranks above the real one. Connecting a wallet there and signing hands an attacker control of your tokens.

How to use Hyperliquid safely

  • Reach Hyperliquid only from a bookmark of hyperliquid.xyz — never from search ads or DMs.
  • Check the domain character by character; watch for extra words like “app-”, “-claim” or swapped letters.
  • Read every signature request. A swap is a swap — if it asks for setApprovalForAll or an unlimited approval you didn't expect, reject it.
  • Revoke old token approvals periodically.
  • Use a security extension that blocks fake Hyperliquid domains and decodes signatures for you.

FAQ

Is hyperliquid.xyz the real Hyperliquid?

Yes, hyperliquid.xyz is the official Hyperliquid domain. Any other domain claiming to be Hyperliquid should be treated as a phishing clone.

Can Hyperliquid steal my funds?

The real Hyperliquid protocol is non-custodial and cannot move your funds without your signature. The risk comes from fake copies and from signing malicious approval requests.

How do I know a Hyperliquid site is fake?

Check the exact domain, look for bait words and look-alike letters, and never sign a request you don't understand. A security extension can flag clones automatically.
