β‘ Kinetiq is the liquid staking protocol on Hyperliquid β you stake $HYPE & other tokens, including $ETH, to receive $kHYPE, a liquid staking token (LST) managed through StakeHub, which allocates stake on a meritocratic basis using validator performance, uptime, and decentralization metrics to keep delegations secure and decentralized for both retail and institutional users.
$kHYPE can be put to work across leading HyperEVM DeFi protocols through Kinetiq Earn, where it generates yield by being deployed into top strategies that optimize for the best risk-adjusted returns πΈ
And for a limited time β until October 16, 2025 β all $kHYPE holders will be stacking kPoints, distributed on a weekly basis, which will play a key role in a potential airdrop post-TGE πͺ
About Kinetiq
Kinetiq is built to be more than a staking portal β itβs the infrastructure layer that makes staking scalable and dependable for the Hyperliquid network. At the center of this design is StakeHub, developed in collaboration with Anthias Labs, which evaluates validators purely on measurable data such as uptime, proposals, penalties, and stake distribution. This approach removes bias, automates delegation, and ensures that the network remains both secure and decentralized.
Because of this, kHYPE has become a reliable standard across HyperEVM DeFi. It isnβt just a token you hold β itβs an asset you can supply, borrow against, pair in liquidity, or integrate into protocols with confidence that the underlying stake is managed transparently, turning Kinetiq into a natural pillar of the Hyperliquid ecosystem.
This blend of meritocratic validator scoring and liquid staking makes kHYPE not only secure but also deeply integrated into the ecosystem, aligning incentives for users, institutions, and the network itself while laying a foundation that is practical and forward-looking for DeFi builders.
