Hyperliquid Plans to Add Token Denomination Adjustment Feature for HIP-1

Hyperliquid founder Jeff announced in a Discord post that, based on developer feedback, HIP-1 will add a deployer-controlled scaleWei feature. The feature enables atomic allocation of tokens from system addresses proportional to users’ holdings of reference tokens, and supports token denomination adjustments. During the adjustment window, unfilled orders will be canceled and re-placed at their actual proportion, while reverse adjustments can be executed via negative parameters. As EVM does not support equivalent atomic operations, relevant contracts may need to integrate custom balance handling logic.
