Swap HYPE across chains
Learn how to swap HYPE for other cryptocurrencies on the Balanced exchange.
Most decentralised exchanges tout support for multiple blockchains, but when it’s time to trade, you’re stuck with assets on a single chain. To get what you need, you have to swap, bridge, and swap again, wasting time and money at every step.
And if you can’t find an exchange that supports both assets you want to use, you’ll have to juggle multiple apps.
Balanced’s cross-chain exchange does what it implies. Trade HYPE with any supported asset across 13+ blockchains and move on with your day in 20 seconds.
How to swap HYPE across chains
You can swap HYPE for any supported cryptocurrency on Balanced’s connected chains.
Go to app.balanced.network/trade and sign in on Hyperliquid and your other preferred chains. Then:
- Choose to swap HYPE.
- Choose an asset to receive and which chain to receive it on.
- Enter the amount to swap. You’ll receive a quote with fees factored in.
- Click Swap and complete the transaction.
You’ll receive the new asset in your wallet within 20 seconds. If your transfer fails or remains pending for more than 5 minutes, it will auto-cancel and return your funds.
Don’t do this if precision matters, as slippage may affect the amount you receive.
How Balanced powers cross-chain swaps
All trades on Balanced are powered by SODAX, a cross-chain liquidity provider. SODAX connects to a range of exchanges across blockchain ecosystems to provide a direct path from HYPE to many other cryptocurrencies, all at a competitive price.
SODAX uses an intent-based model so you can avoid the risk of cross-chain bridges. When you signal your intent to trade, SODAX uses its own liquidity to send your new asset on your preferred chain as fast as possible, and then completes the trade in the background. SODAX assumes all bridge and settlement risk so you never have to worry about the fate of your funds.
Your trade either succeeds, or it reverts.
Why swap on Balanced?
20-second cross-chain trades are impressive, but any app can offer that through SODAX. So Balanced goes out of its way to provide the best experience.
Most DeFi apps track you, incentivise engagement, and push you toward actions that make them money, but Balanced is only here to serve you.
It has no ads, no analytics, and no manipulation tactics. And while core exchanges take a 0.25% cut per transaction, Balanced caps its fee at 0.1%.
Designed to reduce your time and effort, Balanced helps you complete your trade and move on with your day as fast as possible. Because you have better things to do than manage your crypto.
