Hypercall Launches on Elysium, Bringing Onchain Options to Hyperliquid’s New High-Speed Layer 2
Singapore, Singapore, November 9th, 2026, Chainwire
Hypercall begins phased deployment on Kinetiq’s new network, built for 100-millisecond blocks and dramatically greater execution capacity, with direct HyperCore market access planned for a future upgrade.
Hypercall, the onchain options exchange built on Hyperliquid, today announced its launch on Elysium, the new high-performance Layer 2 developed by Kinetiq. The expansion begins alongside Elysium’s public mainnet launch, with Hypercall deploying its options protocol and supporting infrastructure in stages to take advantage of the network’s speed, execution capacity and integration with the Hyperliquid ecosystem.
Elysium addresses a critical challenge in scaling onchain derivatives: the computational demands of continuous pricing, margin calculations, liquidations, settlement and market-maker hedging. Built using Arbitrum Orbit technology, Elysium settles to HyperEVM and uses HYPE as its native gas token. The network delivers 100-millisecond block times and targets execution capacity of 300 million gas per second, providing substantially more room for sophisticated trading applications without leaving the Hyperliquid ecosystem.
“Options markets require enormous amounts of computation. Every new contract adds pricing, margin and hedging demands, and those demands multiply as trading volume grows,” said Jake Sylvestre, Founder of Hypercall. “Elysium gives us the execution capacity to scale that infrastructure while remaining connected to Hyperliquid’s liquidity. This is an important step toward bringing sophisticated options trading to a much broader universe of assets.”
Building Toward Direct HyperCore Integration
A major component of Elysium’s roadmap is native integration with HyperCore, Hyperliquid’s trading engine. A planned network upgrade is designed to let smart contracts on Elysium access live HyperCore order books, prices, balances and positions, and execute trades directly through users’ existing HyperCore accounts.
For Hypercall, these capabilities could enable market makers to update quotes and hedge positions in approximately one block, without transferring custody of the underlying assets. The integration would bring options execution and risk management closer to the deep perpetual futures liquidity already available on Hyperliquid.
These direct HyperCore capabilities are planned for a subsequent Elysium network upgrade and are not part of the initial mainnet launch. Hypercall will continue deploying protocol components and operational infrastructure on Elysium in phases.
Elysium also creates opportunities to expand the range of assets available for options trading. Tokens launched on the network can be mirrored to HyperEVM and progress toward HyperCore spot listings, providing a potential pipeline of new underlying assets for Hypercall. As options markets expand, market makers hedging their exposure on Hyperliquid can generate additional trading activity across the broader ecosystem.
Hypercall’s expansion onto Elysium reinforces its strategy of building comprehensive, always-on options infrastructure around Hyperliquid’s liquidity, combining sophisticated derivatives capabilities with the speed and accessibility of onchain markets.
