Hinkal Pay Now Bridges to HyperCore‍

‍
Hinkal Pay now bridges to HyperCore, Hyperliquid's trading layer. Pick any token on any chain Hinkal Pay supports, and it lands on HyperCore as USDC, ready to trade. Your HyperCore balances then show up in Hinkal Pay, split into perps and stocks, and update live while positions are open.

No manual swap first, no separate bridge app, no jumping between tabs to check your margin.

What HyperCore is

HyperCore is the part of Hyperliquid that runs the order book and margin engine, fully onchain. Trading there runs on USDC: it backs your positions and absorbs their gains and losses. 

It's also where onchain stock trading took off. Stock perps like NVDA, TSLA and the Nasdaq-100 settle in USDC and were driving close to half of Hyperliquid's perp volume by mid-2026.

What's new in Hinkal Pay

Any token in, USDC out

Start from whatever you hold in your public balance, on any chain Hinkal Pay supports: ETH on Base, USDT on BNB, POL on Polygon. Hinkal Pay handles the swap and the bridge in one flow, and you arrive on HyperCore with USDC. No pre-swapping, no hunting for the right bridge.

Routed by LI.FI

Under the hood, the route runs on LI.FI, the same routing that powers bridging across the rest of Hinkal Pay. It finds a path from your token and chain to HyperCore, so you don't have to stitch one together yourself.

Perps and stocks, shown separately

Hinkal Pay pulls in your HyperCore balances and splits them out: USDC in your perps account on one line, USDC backing your stock positions on another. You can tell at a glance what's working where.

Live while positions are open

With a position open, those balances track it in real time. Price moves, your number moves.

Next to everything else

Your HyperCore balances sit alongside your public and private balances in the same app. Payments, savings and trading margin available now in one space.

Why we built it

If you trade on Hyperliquid, getting there can mean jumping between two places: your balances in one app, your positions in another, and a manual bridge in between.

Now getting there takes one flow from whatever token you hold, and keeping an eye on it happens where you already manage your money.

Stock perps make this more useful. They trade around the clock, including weekends and after hours, so your position can move while traditional markets are closed. Seeing that live, next to the rest of your money is easier.

Where privacy comes in

Even a public bridge in Hinkal Pay doesn't go straight from your wallet to HyperCore. It routes through the Hinkal contract: your token leaves your wallet on a supported chain, goes into Hinkal, and without any actions from your wallet address, USDC is sent to the recipient on HyperCore.

So your wallet never shows up on the HyperCore side. An observer sees a deposit into Hinkal on one chain, and a payout on HyperCore, with no direct line between the two.

The recipient can be any HyperCore address: your own trading account, a fresh one, or someone else's. Fund a new account without linking it to the wallet you already use, or send USDC straight to a friend or teammate who trades there.

As a result, your trading account isn't tied to your wallet by a single hop, and you get that without doing anything extra.
