Hyperliquid leads the pack
According to a report shared by blockchain analyst BroLeonAus, multiple PerpDEXs faced operational challenges amid extreme market volatility. Writers were hit with the most severe problems as users were no longer able to place orders or withdraw funds. Its LLP safe also suffered a loss of about 10%. Backpack experienced order delays and position errors, but later returned to normal. Although Aster DEX seemed stable, we encountered interface glitches. Meanwhile, edgeX vaults posted a return of just 0.48% despite the massive market liquidation.
In contrast, Hyperliquid handled turbulence perfectly. The system operated smoothly even in the midst of market turmoil, with no signs of delays or congestion. The platform’s HLP vaults have generated more than $40 million in profits, giving investors more than 10% returns per day. This performance not only solidifies Hyperliquid’s dominance in PerpDEX environments. But at the same time, our reputation for technical reliability and risk management has grown.
performance under pressure
Market volatility is often the ultimate stress test for decentralized exchanges. In extreme situations, liquidity and speed of execution become important. This round revealed which platforms are ready. BroLeon explains: “When the market gets really extreme, you see who’s not wearing swimming trunks.”
His observations resonated throughout the community. Users discussed how safes tend to profit when retail traders face large losses. He noted that vaults often act as counterparties to retail positions. So, if retail investors face a large-scale liquidation, the vault can recover those profits. Therefore, the market turmoil became a moment of opportunity for platforms like Hyperliquid. This allowed us to maintain full functionality and take advantage of market imbalances.
Traders react to the upheaval
The community’s reaction was a mix of relief and frustration. Some traders expressed disappointment with technical glitches on other platforms. Others, however, praise Hyperliquid’s resilience. A few users noted slight lag on platforms like edgeX and Aster. However, most agree that Hyperliquid stood out for its stability. BroLeon himself humorously recounts how he almost withdrew all his money from edgeX before realizing that the yield updates were delayed by a day.
Meanwhile, traders debated why certain safes perform better when volatility is high. As BroLeon pointed out, “Vault is betting on retail investors. Most of the time, retail traders suffer huge losses under extreme circumstances.” Another user also added about risk controls such as position splitting and daily stop-loss triggers. It plays an important role in surviving these market storms.
New benchmarks for PerpDEX
Ultra-fluid performance amidst turmoil has set a new benchmark for the industry. The platform’s strong risk framework, robust infrastructure, and consistent user experience position it as a top choice. Competitors like Backpack and edgeX are working to address that limitation. His super-liquid ability to stay calm under stress and generate huge profits has earned him great trust from the community. As volatility continues to shape the cryptocurrency landscape. This episode highlights important truths in the fast-paced world of PerpDEX. Only platforms with strong foundations and smart systems can succeed when the market tide changes.
