The FXRP/USDH spot market has been launched on Hyperliquid, according to an announcement made by Flare today. This allows XRP’s onchain trading infrastructure to be expanded into other ecosystems. Flare’s efforts to extend XRP liquidity and usefulness throughout Hyperliquid’s onchain orderbook have taken another step forward with the launch of the new market, which comes after the deployment of FXRP/USDC two weeks ago.
Through the use of the FXRP/USDH pair, XRP exposure is combined with USDH, which is a native quotation asset inside the Hyperliquid ecosystem. As a significant Hyperliquid endeavor, USDH was introduced in September 2025. Since then, it has evolved into a basic settlement layer throughout HyperEVM, including support for use cases like as lending, options, and yield strategies.
The USDH comes with an institutional-grade custody infrastructure and is completely backed by U.S. Treasuries and cash equivalents. The asset also provides native trading incentives on Hyperliquid, such as reduced taker fees and larger maker rebates. This creates an environment that is capital-efficient for FXRP liquidity to expand alongside Hyperliquid’s financial layer that is growing at the quickest rate.
Although the spot markets for FXRP are still in the early stages of their lifecycle, the first demand that has been generated as a result of the introduction of FXRP has been robust across ecosystem partners, social platforms, and media coverage. The launch brings to light the increasing desire for exposure to XRP on Hyperliquid as well as the requirement for the XRP Ledger, Flare, and HyperEVM to have a process that allows for frictionless movement of capital.
Continued efforts by Flare have been made to address this infrastructural gap. Direct FXRP bridging from Flare to HyperEVM was made possible by the network one week after the FXRP/USDC market went live. In the next weeks, it is anticipated that a dedicated FXRP bridge that is powered by Flare Smart Accounts will accompany Hyperliquid. This bridge will enable withdrawals from Hyperliquid to the XRP Ledger with a single click, while simultaneously maintaining FXRP’s canonical anchor.
“We believe FXRP will become the XRP asset of choice on Hyperliquid,” said Hugo Philion, co-founder of Flare. “This launch is another important step forward for FXRP in the ecosystem, and we look forward to working closely with Native Markets to grow FXRP alongside the HyperEVM ecosystem.”
This extension of the spot market structure for FXRP occurs at a time when the activity of XRP derivatives is seeing continued growth. Over two hundred million dollars’ worth of open interest in XRP is now currently active across perpetual markets, although the amount of on-chain spot infrastructure has remained relatively small. The fact that Hyperliquid provides spot markets for FXRP/USDC and FXRP/USDH makes it possible for traders to hedge their exposure, execute strategies that are delta-neutral or directional, and arbitrage between spot markets and derivatives markets using the platform. Immediately when the embargo is lifted, the spot market for FXRP/USDH will become operational on Hyperliquid.
