Ranger has added Hyperliquid to its trading stack, enabling users to trade Hyperliquid markets directly within the Ranger interface without funds leaving Solana.
"With the perp DEX wars heating up, this is the first step toward our goal of becoming the endgame for perps." - Ranger
The integration went live following a successful closed beta that began August 20.
A New Venue for Ranger’s Router
Ranger’s Smart Order Router (SOR) automatically scans supported venues to secure the best execution on each trade. With Hyperliquid now live, the system can route orders beyond @solana to non-native perpetual markets without requiring users to bridge funds or set up new wallets.
It sounds a bit complicated, but Ranger makes everything simple for traders on the front-end. Just execute your trades and Ranger handles the rest!
For those curious about the innerworkings, the process is handled in two steps:
Wallet Creation via Privy
When you first trade a Hyperliquid market through Ranger, a Hyperliquid-native wallet is automatically created for you using Privy. This wallet is linked directly to your existing Solana wallet (for example, Phantom or Backpack), so you don’t have to manage any new credentials or setups. Think of it as “one wallet to rule them all.” Your Solana wallet becomes your key to trading cross-chain.
Cross-Chain Execution via Relay
When an order is placed, Ranger uses @RelayProtocol to securely relay and execute it on Hyperliquid’s infrastructure. This happens entirely from within the Solana environment with no manual bridging and no delays. Settlement remains non-custodial and trustless.
Why It Matters for Solana
The integration reinforces Solana’s position as a hub for advanced trading infrastructure. By giving users access to Hyperliquid markets through Ranger, traders can interact with external liquidity without moving assets off Solana.
This keeps liquidity and activity within the Solana ecosystem while expanding the range of markets available to users. At the same time, the integration is a key step in establishing Ranger as a central access point for onchain trading.
Points Program
For traders interested in trying the new integration, activity on Hyperliquid also contributes to Ranger’s points program.
Points are distributed weekly, with 500,000 allocated across perps, spot, and referral activity. Snapshots are taken every Friday at 6 a.m. UTC.
It’s a nifty structure. Users can trade Hyperliquid markets from a Solana-based platform while continuing to earn rewards through a Solana-based points system.
And trading isn't the only way to earn rewards. Users can participate in Ranger's "Operation X" campaign by posting about the platform on X.
