Hyperliquid HIP-4 Event Contract Launched with 6.05 Million Trades on the First Day, Capturing Approximately 0.7% of the Prediction Market

2026.05.04 15:36:41

On May 4th, decentralized exchange (DEX) platform Hyperliquid officially launched its HIP-4 Event Contract. On day one, the product’s nominal trading volume hit 6.05 million contracts—roughly 0.7% of total daily prediction market volume. For context, top prediction market platforms still hold a massive lead in daily trading volume: Kalshi (~546M contracts), Polymarket (~190M), Limitless (~68.26M), Crypto.com (~28.2M), Opinion (~25.72M), Predict.fun (~11.8M). Data indicates Hyperliquid has achieved a meaningful cold start in the event contract space despite its small initial scale, officially marking its entry into the competitive prediction market landscape. In the near term, top platforms retain an absolute liquidity edge—future growth will hinge on product design and user acquisition/migration capabilities.

Hornby reported the vulnerability to the Zcash Open Development Lab (ZODL), which coordinated an emergency cross-ecosystem response. A fix for the issue was completed on June 2. Shielded Labs confirmed the vulnerability is real and exploitable. Hornby’s exploit code, built in a local testing environment, can generate unlimited, undetectable counterfeit ZEC. Because of Orchard’s privacy features, there is no cryptographic way to prove whether the flaw was exploited before the fix launched. Still, Shielded Labs estimates the chance of pre-fix exploitation is low. The group is now developing a network upgrade proposal: it would deploy a new shielded pool and implement turnstile accounting for all Orchard pool tokens. This process would allow a
