FalconX is launching its Prime Brokerage Financing solution for Hyperliquid, allowing up to 5x leverage on the leading DeFi derivatives venue. This launch marks a meaningful expansion of FalconX’s prime brokerage capabilities beyond centralized and OTC markets, bringing institutional-grade capital efficiency and risk discipline to onchain derivatives markets.
“As DeFi markets continue to grow, financing and risk frameworks need to evolve alongside them,” said Matthew Long, General Manager, APAC & Middle East at FalconX. “By extending our prime brokerage financing to Hyperliquid, we’re bringing FalconX’s risk discipline and capital framework into onchain markets.”
How It Works
FalconX provides Prime Brokerage Financing that allows clients to deploy leverage when trading on Hyperliquid, with margin and risk managed at the portfolio level through a single prime relationship.
For FalconX DMA clients, margin can be managed across Hyperliquid and supported DMA venues including Binance, OKX, Bybit, and Deribit, enabling portfolio-level netting across all supported venues. Margin is managed against a single collateral pool, eliminating fragmented credit across venues.
Clients can monitor balances, positions, margin, and risk across venues through FalconX’s unified client platform, enabling dynamic capital management as market conditions evolve.
“This represents a real evolution in how institutions engage with DeFi,” said Shiliang Tang, Managing Partner at Monarq Asset Management. “By combining DeFi-native execution with a prime brokerage financing framework, it unlocks a level of capital efficiency that has not previously been available through onchain trading venues.”
Institutional Custody with Fordefi and Station70
Trading on Hyperliquid is conducted through self-hosted custody using Fordefi, an institutional MPC wallet platform supporting shared governance and advanced transaction controls. Each client trades through a dedicated Fordefi wallet configured with agreed governance and transaction policies.
Operational resilience is supported by Station70, which provides secure third-party recovery infrastructure. Together, Fordefi and Station70 ensure clients retain custody of assets while operating within a secure, institutionally robust framework.
Expanding Prime Brokerage into DeFi
With this launch, DeFi derivatives trading on Hyperliquid is now supported by the same portfolio-level financing and risk construct institutions use to deploy capital across their broader allocations. This reinforces FalconX’s role as a full-service prime broker supporting sophisticated trading strategies that span both centralized and decentralized markets under a single financing and risk framework.
