The ergonomic and functional design of the Optejet UFD allows for horizontal drug delivery and eliminates the need to tilt the head back or the manual dexterity to squeeze a bottle to administer medications. Drug is delivered in a microscopic array of droplets that is comfortable and matches the amount of fluid that the front of the eye can hold. The precise delivery of a low-volume columnar spray by the Optejet UFD helps ensure instillation success while minimizing contamination risk with a non-protruding nozzle and self-closing shutter. In clinical trials, the Optejet UFD has demonstrated that its targeted delivery achieves a high rate of successful administration, with 98% of sprays being accurately delivered upon first attempt compared to the established rate reported with traditional eye drops of approximately 50%.
Previous report
A more physiologically appropriate volume of medication in the range of seven to ten microliters is delivered by the Optejet UFD, which is approximately one-fifth of the 35 to 50 microliter dose typically delivered in a single eye drop. Lower volume of medication exposes the ocular surface to less active ingredients and preservatives, potentially reducing ocular stress and surface damage and improving tolerability. The lower volume also minimizes the potential for drug to enter systemic circulation, with the goal of avoiding some common side effects that are related to overdosing of the eye.

This approach allows traders to place bids and asks for various assets, more akin to a centralized cryptocurrency exchange than other decentralized exchanges that rely on automated market makers to fulfill orders. The Hyperliquid blockchain is available to any potential user with a compatible cryptocurrency wallet such as MetaMask, Phantom, and Coinbase Wallet. However, Hyperliquid interface operators can choose to block persons in certain jurisdictions or sanctioned wallets as required via solutions such as geo-blocking and address screening.

HYPE serves multiple purposes: users can stake HYPE to earn staking rewards, use staked HYPE inventory to reduce their trading fees, use HYPE to conduct transactions on the HyperEVM, and use HYPE as collateral on various decentralized finance (“DeFi”) applications.

HYPE is the native token of Hyperliquid. The initial total supply of HYPE was set at 1 billion, which has been subsequently reduced to approximately 956 million as of April 30, 2026, as further described below, with 31% of the initial total supply issued in November 2024, and 38.88% of the initial total supply reserved for future community emissions. Hyperliquid has a unique network mechanism that autonomously purchases and removes HYPE tokens from circulation and moves them into an assistance fund (the “Assistance Fund”). This is done by using the trading fees generated on the network’s order books to buy back available HYPE. Approximately 99% of daily fees are allocated to this mechanism, which creates consistent open market demand for the token. As of April 2026, approximately 44 million HYPE have been acquired by the Assistance Fund. In December 2025, the Hyperliquid Foundation initiated a network-wide validator governance vote to formally recognize all HYPE tokens held in the Assistance Fund system address as permanently burned. The validators approved (via a majority vote) that the tokens were mathematically irretrievable and must be treated as removed from both the circulating and total supply of HYPE.

The Hyperliquid L1 is a proof-of-stake blockchain, in which validators that have staked the threshold number of HYPE tokens are selected to produce blocks, and will receive rewards when they successfully validate blocks. Holders of HYPE can delegate to validators who then are able to vote on certain decisions regarding the platform, such as the listing and de-listing of new markets. Any holder of HYPE can delegate HYPE to a validator to earn staking rewards, should the validator successfully participate in network consensus. Staked HYPE is locked until un-staked, and subject to a seven-day un-staking queue before HYPE is released back to the user. Staking also provides revenues to the Company in the form of staking yields; however, the required seven-day unlocking period may limit the Company’s liquidity while its HYPE remains staked. In addition, all HiHYPE, kHYPE, and kmHYPE owned by the Company (each defined below), and other future liquid staked HYPE that may be potentially owned by the Company, will be subject to the same seven-day unlocking period. The Company anticipates that it will have sufficient cash and cash equivalents to cover its operating expenses and any debt obligations during these periods. The Company initialized the staking process on July 1, 2025, and as of March 31, 2026, it had approximately 992,826 HYPE native staked directly to the Kinetiq x Hyperion validator, described further below. Staking was the primary revenue generation strategy for the Company in the three months ended March 31, 2026.

More recently, in the three months ended December 31, 2025, the Hyperliquid network implemented the Hyperliquid Improvement Proposal 3 (“HIP-3”) upgrade, which enables any user with 500,000 HYPE staked at a deployer address to launch a custom on-chain perpetual futures market for non-crypto assets such as equities, commodities and indices. These network upgrades expand both Hyperliquid’s product suite and its potential user base, further establishing it as a premier on-chain destination for financial activity. To support HIP-3, the Company provided Felix with the HYPE required to launch a perpetual futures market and earns a share of the fees earned from trading activity through its HAUS agreement, described in more detail below. This perpetual futures market is operated and maintained by Felix and is accessible only to non-U.S. persons. Because the perpetual futures market is not currently subject to regulation by the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission and perpetual futures are not permitted for unrestricted trading in the United States, this perpetual futures market is operated outside the United States and is not made available to or marketed to U.S. persons. Beyond engaging with Hyperliquid’s flagship exchange product, users can also deploy HYPE into the HyperEVM for various strategies such as lending and liquidity provisioning. The Company is the first public company on HyperEVM, staking a significant portion of its native HYPE into Kinetiq’s uniquely designed institutional HYPE (“iHYPE”) product. This enabled the Company to earn staking yield on its HYPE while also gaining access to a unique liquid receipt token, Hyperion institutional HYPE (“HiHYPE”), which is used for various on-chain and off-chain strategies. The Company has also earned kPoints, a participation-based incentive that qualified the Company to receive a portion of the airdrop of Kinetiq’s KNTQ token (the governance token of the Kinetiq liquid staking protocol). This reflects yet another DeFi strategy that translates into additional yield from and ownership of key products built on Hyperliquid.

In July 2026, Hyperliquid Labs announced the Hyperliquid Improvement Proposal 4 (“HIP-4”) upgrade, which is expected to enable any user with 500,000 HYPE staked at a deployer address to launch custom on-chain outcome markets such as prediction markets, options, and other binary-resolution financial instruments. As of August 10, 2026, HIP-4 remains in a testing phase and is not yet launched to end-users. These network upgrades expand both Hyperliquid’s product suite and its potential user base, further establishing it as a premier on-chain destination for financial activity.
