1. "Hyperliquid's Major Move: 'Portfolio Margin' and Its Impact on Liquidity"
This is one of Hyperliquid's most significant upgrades to date. Various DeFi protocols and Perp DEX upgrades in the past in the crypto market have actually been addressing the same problem: how to make limited funds unleash greater liquidity. The traditional financial derivative market had an extremely effective solution in the past: Portfolio Margin. This mechanism once brought an incremental scale of over $70 trillion to the traditional derivative market, fundamentally changing the rules of institutional trading. And now, Hyperliquid has brought it onto the chain. In today's liquidity crunch, this could be a turning point for a new era of prosperity in the on-chain derivative market.
